Re: [TCML] Sphere Topload Coil

[bartb <bartb@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi David,

Increased pressure increases the breakdown voltage and the air flow of 
course aids cooling. Along with the cooling, surface to air thermal 
dissipation further enhances the gaps power handling. So, I would agree 
that if a multi segment gap was pressurized similarly, good things are 
sure to come about.
