Re: [TCML] MOT Measurements

Hi Ted,

Thanks for posting the data. I agree, MOT's are pretty cool 
transformers. What confused the issue is that I was talking self 
inductances and you were looking at impedance. The last email I wrote I 
thought it would be good to go ahead and solve for the self inductances 
as well as leakage inductance to help decipher.

What was cool to me was looking at how the shunts affected the 
transformer. The reason why I am interested spans a large number of 
issues (from spark length to bps). Shunted transformers mess with things 
more than I realized and the coil impedance is yet another factor that 
plays a role on how the transformer will perform.

Best regards,
Bart
