Re: [TCML] Tesla Digest, Vol 126, Issue 5



I concur David,

BIL is the voltage withstand of the insulation for a 1.2 x 50 uSec
uni-potential lightning strike simulation. This is not a continuous duty
cycle test, only a single surge from a Mark's generator as specified in IEEE
- 4.  Note, a lower potential switching surge may cause more damage as the
duration of a 1000 x 4000 usec transient has multitudes of higher energy
contained within that single pulse. Most systems are designed with BIL
lightning ratings of 8 to 10 times the continuous duty voltage using AC. So
a 50-kV mica capacitor may only be good for 5 or 6 kV AC. You need to watch
the tan-delta of your caps as the frequency increases when applying caps to
Tesla Coils. 

See Ref: http://www.versapower.pt/files/TAN-DELTA-CABLE-TESTING-07.pdf

This is the prime failure mode of Tesla Coils - failure to acknowledge
losses in capacitors that lead to catastrophic failures - even explosions.

Tedd,

"BIL" stands for Basic Impulse Level. This is like a 50 microsecond or less 
fast rise pulse of the high amplitude voltage rating that the devise is 
suppose to be able to withstand without sustaining damage. This extra 
robusticity renders the devise more immune to lightning strikes or huge 
witching surges that the entire power line infrastructure and its associated

components would surely be vulnerable to.

David Rieben

Electrostatic. Typical problem with plastic meter faces.
There are waxes out there that are static bleeding, IE conductive and 
you can wax the face to help minimize the problem.
Easy to prove it is static, just mist the meter with Windex and 
gently wipe it clean, the needle should drop to zero.

Wow that's a deal...  I think I ended up with an extra copy of that some
time ago.  I need to look for it in these boxes of books!  But I'd better
make sure it's a spare before selling it.  Took too long to find, then
suddenly won two together.

Dear List,
Long time list member but infrequent poster. I stopped build Tesla Coils a
few years back due to family commitments.

I was thinking recently about the possibility of creating a low voltage
Tesla coil using a thyristor to dump energy into a tank circuit.

I build a thyratron Tesla Coil this way 3 years ago. The thyratron simply
discharged a large capacitor over the tuned LC circuit and then switched
off again.

I had significant problems with reverse overvoltage caused by the tank
circuit. But it did work.

Anyone have any thoughts on this? It could result in very cheap Tesla Coils
if the kinks could be ironed out.

Cheers!
-Wilyarti

I wish I knew someone with one I could borrow to read...
Maybe I'll stumble across one one day.?

Wow that's a deal...  I think I ended up with an extra copy of that some
time ago.  I need to look for it in these boxes of books!  But I'd better
make sure it's a spare before selling it.  Took too long to find, then
suddenly won two together.Nick A________________________________From: Tesla

I posted this long ago (title a bit excessive...) and apparently started 
a lot of works in solid-state coils:

I was visiting my mother in Oklahoma City a few weeks ago. While there, I
visited the Oklahoma City Science Museum. The museum had a medium-sized
tesla coil enclosed in a plexiglass room. It could be operated about once a
minute for about 10 seconds. The secondary appeared to be about 4 feet tall
and about 4 inches in diameter. It had a toroid that looked like about 4" x
12". The capacitors appeared to be a bank of doorknob capacitors. It used
some kind of static spark gap which was not visible. It also had what
appeared to be the biggest NST that I have ever seen as the power source.
Spark length into free air was about 2 feet.

Does anyone know who built this coil?

Steve
