No!  The 6pF capacitor should be in series with the 220k resistor, not in 
parallel with it.

You will get about 6 joules in the 220k streamer resistor.  The 15 joules 
is input power.  You can integrate the power through Rprimary to find that.

Integrate for the power in the 220k streamer resistor.
