Hello All, I am new to this group. I saw some of the videos and I was mind-blown! Never saw such things other than in SciFi movies! Very cool !! I don't have a Tesla Coil yet, but I was making plans for building one. I am currently doing some academic research on high electric currents. What I am trying to do is reaching the maximum temperature that could be reached by passing electric current through a conductor and the consequences of that. Has anyone tried this kind of experiment? If you have any experience or ideas about it, I would be very happy to know. Thanks a bunch! Isik
Hi Isik,Considerable research has been conducted in the area of exploding wires for explosive detonation, shock wave research, fast Z-pinch, high density plasmas, etc. Contact me off-list to discuss since this is very off topic for Tesla Coils.
