Hi, I am in the middle off my dissertation (University project), I was wanting to get the correct answers for the questions below: The spark gap equation..... L = 1.7 x /Power of Nst. Why do we use 1.7?? I have tried looking for this but could not find a reasonable answer. Also When the voltage/ current has been supplied from the transformer.... the Capacitor is charging, when it reached maximum the Spark gap ionized air and strikes which makes it a closed circuit. what is happening to the Spark gap when the capacitor is charging? why does it strike? how is the spark created? There are lots of simple ways of saying it, but id like to know what is actually happening. Thanks Matthew. _______________________________________________ Tesla mailing list Tesla@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.pupman.com/mailman/listinfo/tesla
