RE: TC Electrostatics
Could you try these series of measurements
with chicken wire, window screen, etc.,
interposed betwixt the coil and aluminum plate?

|The following are electrostatic voltages (kV) produced by a small TC
|and collected on a movable aluminum target. A 14" x 14" flat aluminum
|sheet target was suspended vertically by the corners with monofiliment
|line. A 15 kV neon wire was attached to the back with tape and run to
|the ES voltmeter which was grounded to the system ground. A fan was
|directed upward, blowing air between the TC terminal and Al target.
|
|The TC is 4" x 22" wound with #23 enameled wire and with a flat spiral
|primary. The cap is 20 nF and there are two static tungsten gaps.
|Power by a 12/60 neon. A 20" toroid was initially used, but a 1 1/2"
|brass ball was finally settled upon.
|
|After setting R (distance from ball trerminal to Al target) the TC was
|allowed to run until the voltage on the ES voltmeter stabilized. Three
|series were done using R from 1' to 5' in each and input voltages from
|the variac of 50v, 60v and 70v.
|
|
| R 50V 60V 70V
|
| 1' 8.25kV 8.6kV 9.9kV
| 2' 4.4 4.6 4.75
| 3' 2.2 3.0 3.25
| 4' 1.7 2.2 2.35
| 5' 1.3 1.6 1.8
|
|Grafting R vs. voltage produces a linear plot with voltage proportional
|to 1/R, within experimental error.
|
|Conventional EM theory expresses an exponential decay proportional to
|1/R^2. Conventional EM predicts about 79 volts for the 1.8 kV at 5'
|(70V column).
|
|Clearly, something in addition to EM is taking place in this system.
|Without doubt, electrostatics are involved and are produced by the TC.
|Are not scalar electromagnetics supposed to follow 1/R attenuation?
