Subject: [TSSP] Loss due to ultrasonic mechanical vibration of secondary?

Hi All,

Fishing around for additional loss mechanisms for a secondary coil,
has anyone ever looked into the possibility that mechanical vibration
of the winding at the RF frequency could be responsible for some part
of the overall dissipation?

Perhaps a winding which is less than perfectly rigid might cause
minute inelastic deformations of the winding/former, especially in
something like sonotube which presumably damps sound vibrations
rather well.

Just something to ponder.

Cheers,
