    I would like to post a longer answer, but the true thing is that I'm not a specialist in electrical transformer theories. Be sure that there is something more going on apart from the oficial explanation. If you look for information, you can find information about transformers operating in a non conventional way.

    Maybe if you analize the MEG transformer from T.Bearden or some of the transformers of D.Smith, M.Bank, Sweet, Leedskalnin, etc.

    You've been writting about coil interaction. Check out one of the D.Smith transformers based on one emitter coil and some receivers coils. Maybe it could help to you to better understand part of your questions.

      MBrownn. Try this get 2 mot primarys and put back on one of the iron cores. Try to have them fit loosely on the core. Then put a load on the secondary. (wich is one of the primarys). As it is loaded the secondary will rise up, until the sec load is evened out. then the sec coil will drop back down. When loading the secondary and power being drawn it must create two like poles to repel each other. As the current drops the secondary coil will drop back down on the primary.. So what I did was put the sec in the position it wanted to be as it rose up and marked it. Then I knew where to adjust it to.

      Just some food for thought as long as your on the subject of transformers.I tried putting coils on the outer legs. One leg is south and one leg is north. So I used for 4 coils and wound them crisscrossed. I never finished completing that project. Still sitting on the bench with all the rest.

        Hi hiwater,

        This is a good experiment as it proves the presence of the magnetic field in the secondary when drawing a current from it.

          Pulse Transformers

          Hi @mbrown,
          As Carrol eluded to, DC transformers (pulse transformer) are quite different from AC transformer due to the transient spikes resulting from the collapsing field of the pulsed DC as opposed to the gradient, magnetic reversal of an sinusoidal AC wave. You will also see a much different output wave from the input. I am not an expert in this field, but have been studying this for a little over a year and built a few. Here is a culmination of resources I found very useful in gaining a basic understanding of current design practices for DC transformers on Heritic.
          Good Luck,
          Randy

            Thanks I will take a look
