Displacement current
As a mechanical engineer I am not particularly qualified with respect
to the following so I am hoping others will discuss it so it becomes clearer to me. Reviewing the time of Maxwell it seems his real niche was as a mathematician and not necessarilly on par with Faraday, Gauss, Newton and others that supplied the various observations and formulas with which Maxwell worked with. From my standpoint he apparently did not give due preference to the idea of equilibriums as did ALL of his formula suppliers and considering his object it was not that big a deal. I then read that the formulas that were condensed in numbers did not exactly jive! So Maxwell, the mathematician, invented displacement current which apparently has nothing to do with radiation according to what I read. Apparently this same current does not create a magnetic field as the main current does e.t.c. but in mathematical terms it gave a conclusion to what he wanted to do. From my point of view I find it odd that a current could flow of a time varient nature does not include a magnetic field UNLESS the current flowed in the center of the conductor. I am not saying that displacement current travels in the center but I do ask those educated in this field if displacement current has been obseved, measured and is present BEYOND DOUBT? Also as the generation of radiation is not precisely known at this time, how could it be said it does not contribute to radiation? Starting from that presented to Maxwell initially, exactly how did the concept of a time varying current traveling along a radiators surface yet without producing a magnetic field pass muster of those who study such? Best regards Art |

Apparently this same current does not create a magnetic field as the main current does e.t.c. From: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Displacement_current you will find " Displacement current has the units of electric current and it has an associated magnetic field. " but in mathematical terms it gave a conclusion to what he wanted to do. From my point of view I find it odd that a current could flow of a time varient nature does not include a magnetic field UNLESS the current flowed in the center of the conductor. You are trying to justify your misbeliefs by referencing incorrect information. Familiar with GIGO ? I am not saying that displacement current travels in the center Then how can you connect the two? but I do ask those educated in this field if displacement current has been obseved, measured and is present BEYOND DOUBT? Also as the generation of radiation is not precisely known at this time, how could it be said it does not contribute to radiation?

Best regards Art You repeatedly say your facts are not disputed. Well, I'm disputing them again. |

The part that Maxwell added is not now acceptable and has been removed. After all, no current or magnetic field that could be attribitable to Maxwells belated addition to a prior masters findings was just a whim to satisfy his mathematics and his paper on Forces.The field or the current has not been ratified Wilkpedia makes that quite clear if you read the whole article. This does not render Maxwell's laws as incorrect it just means that like the weak force he cannot explain the portion which he name Displacement current even tho he applied mathematical data. All because he overlooked the term requilibrium and thus assumed that displacement meant what he termed in his white paper on forces. It was this reference that shows he overlooked the need for a full wave antenna and thus the suggestion that force or current deflected off the end of the radiator back on the path from whence it came., I suppose that I can now conclude that the book Reflections based on a hypotheses that was completely incorrect the rest of the material can be considered suspect. There is no reflection from the top of a fractional wavelength anttena just a perbatation called cavitation as with all current flow which is sharply diverted from iys initial direction.

From the same authority (sic) of wikipedia: "Ampère's law with Maxwell's correction states that magnetic fields can be generated in two ways: By electrical current (this was the original "Ampère's law") and by changing electric fields (this was Maxwell's correction, also called the displacement current term)." 73's Richard Clark, KB7QHC |

wrote: he overlooked the term requilibrium From Maxwell himself (with correct spelling): "About the beginning of this century, the properties of bodies were investigated by several distinguished French mathematicians on the hypothesis that they are systems of molecules in equilibrium. The somewhat unsatisfactory nature of the results of these investigations produced, especially in this country, a reaction in favour of the opposite method of treating bodies as if they were, so far at least as our experiments are concerned, truly continuous. This method, in the hands of Green, Stokes, and others, has led to results, the value of which does not at all depend on what theory we adopt as to the ultimate constitution of bodies." It would appear that equilibrium (by any variant of spelling) is: 1. French; 2. unsatisfactory; 3. a poorer relation to continuous (i.e. employing time which equilibrium does not). 73's Richard Clark, KB7QHC |

I would venture, it ends up "mostly" heat! Regards, JS |

Regards, JS Certainly the copper loss is insignificant in the center but the radiation resistance is only present for half the time (1/2 WL) ! Thus the input energy is half that placed on a full WL as well as the radiated energy ( I think that is correct) So I suppose you could also say that the radiation pulse is half the length in time of that from a full wave antenna.Since the radiation pulse gap is small compared to what your ear can sample I suppose the same intelligence would get thru since the sample size is always much larger than what the ear can interprete. Ofcourse there is the TOA to be considered in any comparison.This looks all mixed up but I will post it anyway so that posters will understand what real jabber jabber looks like. If you look at it from a tank circuit point of view then it really gets complicated especially this late in the evening Regards Art Unwin KB9MZ......(xg) |
