Re: [TCML] VTTC-tuning. John got me started ;-)
I see that Vp is missing in the formula I typed below.
It should be obviously :
V=0.7*Vp*SQRT(Ls/Lp)
Note for Moderators:
If You see obvious mistakes of similar kind in the future,feel free to correct it!

Very interesting paper.
But what do you think of formula:
0.5*L*di/dt < V < L*di/dt
Note that this gives good agreement with Dr. Resonance's max voltage formula of a typical coil:
V=0.7*SQRT(Ls/Lp)
The factor 0.7 is somewhere between 0.5 and 1 so we have:
V=0.7*L*di/dt

Hi Dex,
Let me point you to Paul Nicholson's TSSP site. There have been numerous
measurements made regarding current distribution, base current
measurements, etc. There is a link on the front page to pn2511. Read
through this document (it's right down your path of interest). This may
give you a better understanding of what is happening in the background
of Javatc which is accounting for the distribution along the secondary.

Take care,
Bart
