Re: w5uc's pi net spread sheet...deluxe.
Nice pix of the 6 mtr project. Looks like you have done layout work before. Living in Lufkin, TX, do you work for the measuring device outfit? Have an old Lufkin 50 ft. tape measure that must be 60-70

Re: Grounding Grids on 3-500Z's
In my experiences, a suitable glitch-R in the HV+ helps prevent grid- filament shorts.

Re: TL922 transformer and other
Will, I agree. When you design a transformer for 10 KG there is an oversized core or extra windings both of wich increase the resistance losses. This same transformer at 50 Hz. will be more efficient

Re: [??????????????] Re: TL922 transformer and otherr
Materials like kapton insulators are rated at 7000 volts / mil do a better job than a layer of paint. This is required when you build high voltage transformers. Low voltage you can rely on wire

Re: TL922 transformer and other
Francis, If we took a transformer say designed to run at 10 kilogauss, but the iron would run okay at 12 kilogauss, then dropped the frequency down to 50 Hz, it would probably be okay since the flux

Grounding Grids on 3-500Z's

Re: TL922 transformer and other

Re: TL922 transformer and other
Francis, Yup, your right. I was going by the difference in the two formulas between 50 and 60 Hz. Both sets have a difference of 1.2. See below; For 60 Hz TPV = 4.85 / A A = 0.1725 x sq rt of P P = (

Re: TL922 transformer and 50 Hz formulas
I forgot about Hsu being overseas. He would have a 50 Hz transformer and the formula I showed was for 60 Hz at 12 kilogauss. The one for 50 Hz is; TPV = 5.82 / a a = 0.206 x sq rt of P P = ( a / 0.206

Re: TL922 transformer and other
Will, untrue all you need to do is make the core bigger to reduce the flux at 50 Hz. Volts per turn stay the same. Wire will be a bit longer due to bigger window. So bigger core makes more resistance

That is exactly why 400 Hz. is used in aircraft. but then some nut decided to do 270 VDC and kill people working on them. All to save the constant speed generator shaft interface. A 50 Hz. transformer
