Subject: Re: [TSSP] New Secondary Voltage Profiling Instrument
Terry Basically it's an electrophorus ...nice idea ... you've already spotted the problems that might occur such as droop. I wonder if local ionisation will allow the charge on the capacitor to bleed away before you get chance to sample it on a high Z meter. Similar things have been done by using Toepfler profilers: methods of determining electric field distributions using needles suspended on threads, that sort of thing. Also, peope have wired various neon bulbs into coils in crude attempts to visualise things, something I have never tried but maybe others have had a go at. I don't think anyone has tried this sampling approach, either, so it'll be great to see what happens. Richard > Hi All, > > After a four redesigns, testing, great thoughts, and many hours work...
