You said the phase difference between the two ends is 45 degrees. Therefore, charge "input" and "output" is balanced ONLY twice during a cycle, when the instantaneous currents are the same. No phase need apply he we're talking INSTANTANEOUS currents. Give us a break, Tom. Of course, we are *NOT* and never have been talking instantaneous currents. All currents ever discussed concerning this subject have been RMS currents. That's just your instantaneous strawman. Long term charge accumulation is averaged over many cycles. There is simply none of that because the traveling waves are not storing any net charge inside the coil. How can you get so desperate as to play such silly games? My statement obviously meant: One amp of RMS forward current is flowing into the coil and one amp of RMS forward current is flowing out of the coil. Average charge is balanced. Even though the standing wave current is different at each end of the coil, the average charge into and out of the coil is still balanced. -- 73, Cecil http://www.qsl.net/w5dxp |
