Hi All,
I had a chance to look through the book "Spark Discharge" and it appears
they have things pretty much figured out!! They come up with most of the
same numbers we do and add some wonderful things like "optimal rise time"
:-)))) 111uS for a 2 meter streamer ;-))
They get about 1.9pF/foot for streamer capacitance which is pretty close to
our "average" number taking various factors (slow resonant rise) into
account. It is pretty straight forward adding a dynamic model to ScanTesla...
They have some pretty good math behind their numbers but they obviously
really "checked it" too ;-))
The book is actually worth $130! It is from CRC Press too (which
apparently has presses made of gold, diamond, and platinum....) so it is
cheap for their books!
I will do some test (or maybe E-Tesla can do it) to better lock down the
numbers for our case and see if I can get it into ScanTesla...
Stay tuned...
Cheers,
Terry
