Re: [TCML] NST Measurements

[bartb <bartb@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

One more thing Finn,

Shunts force leakage. Leakage does not permeate the core. The more 
leakage you have, the less of a change in permeability due to less 
current in the core. If we compare an off the shelf NST to a modified 
NST with 1/2 the shunts removed, the full shunted NST should cause less 
change in permeability to the core than one with 1/2 the shunts removed 
for the same current in the windings.

When we reduce the shunts, we reduce the leakage, and the more current 
is now allowed to change the permeability of the core, and thus, we see 
a more dramatic inductance change. But the change is there regardless of 
it's magnitude.

Take care,
Bart
