I was thinking too much recently and I was inspired! We build single phase twin TC so why not build a triplet coil with three phase? Well the first problem is most residential current is single phase, so after seeing that many conversion methods would cost a ton, I decided on a barbaric method, run a three phase motor with a single pase motor, and what do you know, Polyphasic alternating current!
Actually, you can do it with just the three phase motor, if you can get it spinning. It's called a "rotary converter".
So this problem
aside how would one wire said coil, maybe with a 3 phase xformer supplying a three different caps and spark gaps all using different phases?
Build 3 coils, with static gaps, and power them off the three phases. The coils will fire in rotation at 360 bps total.
This isn't going to be 3phase at RF, though.
Any ideas?
