Default Distributed capacitance effects Q?

amdx wrote:
Assume a 10 turn loop, between each turn there is a capacitance,
so, you have a complete circuit, (L,C,R) there is current
flowing through this circuit that is not flowing through the entire 10
turn loop. (this happens in the other 9 turns also)


Reminds me of a transmission line distributed network
for which a velocity factor can be calculated.

Anyone care to run with that, or explain it more clearly, or shoot it
down.


Please see my other reply where an IEEE white paper
agrees with you.
