[TCML] solenoid primary coupling, in house coil

Hi Jim,

Version 10 and above will be very different than 9.1. The old versions 
were simple Wheeler and Medhurst calculations. Pretty much what can be 
done in a spreadsheet.

The latest version 11.3 will use radius inputs (due to running various 
coil geometry). It will also run slower due to the Geotc file which 
performs all the high end algorithms. It really helps to use a fast pc 
and IE6 or Firefox browsers (I like Firefox myself). There is a message 
the browser itself will give during a run (script running too long). 
This occurs after 5 million iterations. There's a link on my Application 
Notes page on how to stop that annoying error. It's written into the 
browser, so nothing I can do except to help people set their browsers to 
allow longer iterations. The reason they do this is to prevent scripts 
from locking up the browser if it's stuck in a loop.

It takes some patience, but the accuracy between the old and new 
programs are night and day. The code is not compiled and really needs to 
be. This is why it runs slow.

Take care,
Bart
