It is well understood that the normal oscillation of a TC
secondary is a longitudinal mode - meaning that the E-field and
H-field both point along the axis of the coil. By contrast,
the transverse mode is what you'd find in a helical antenna
coil where E and H field vectors point across the diameter.
Doh.. of course.. I keep thinking of a TC more as a lumped element.
However, I don't know that this conventional longitudinal mode is what
the OP was talking about.
'Longitudinal Magneto Dielectric' is not a term used in
science, it's a nonsense term made up by cranks. There are
a few mentions of it on the web - they are all crank sites
containing a variety of nonsense of the not-even-wrong kind.
It is rather sad to see such ignorance and superstition and
it's tragic to see enthusiasts being drawn into it.
Yes.. that is what I was thinking.
