"When current flows in the transmitter-end of the coil, a magnetic field is created. The time-varying magnetic field causes charges in the other turns to instantly move." Instant movement of charges is instant current, and everyone knows that current in a coil lags the voltage. Instant movement of charges is impossible except in the mind of someone using the lumped-element model. Apparently, anything is possible in that kind of mind. As Dr. Corum said: "Lumped circuit theory fails because it's a *theory* whose presuppositions are inadequate. Every EE in the world was warned of this in their first sophomore circuits course. ... Lumped circuit theory isn't absolute truth, it's only an analytical *theory* - and in those resonators we have the case where this sophomore *theory* fails *experimentally. The engineer must either use Maxwell's equations or distributed elements to model reality." -- 73, Cecil http://www.w5dxp.com |
