Could anyone tell me exactly how to calculate the amount of needed
capacitance in the MMC array?
Any information would be greatly appreciated.
Hi John, here is the original MMC chart that the geek group put out:
http://www.tb3.com/tesla/capacitors/MMCcapSales.gif
That chart (and how you go about doing it) is the combination between 3
factors:
1) enough caps in a string to hold off the voltage.. 10 for a 15kV NST
2) enough caps to get the capacitance where you want it (that's why
there's 19 0.1 uF caps for a 15/30.. it's to get the capacitance down
low enough.
3) enough caps/strings in parallel to handle the current
