5FP7 project starting with the focusing coil.

A quick search, not really knowing what I am looking for got me this: -


Form Factor for Different Waveforms



For different waveforms, here we have listed below.



    The form factor for the sine wave is π/2√2 = 1.1107, the RMS value is a/√2 and ARV is a2/ π

    The form factor of a half-wave rectifier is π/2 = 1.571, the RMS value is a/2 and ARV is a/ π

    The form factor for a full-wave rectifier is π/2√2 = 1.571, the RMS value is a/2 and ARV is a (2/ π)

    The form factor for the square wave is a/a = 1, the RMS value is ‘a’ and ARV is ‘a’

    The form factor for the pulse wave is 1/√D. the RMS value is a√D and ARV is aD

    Similarly, for the triangle wave is 2/√3 = 1.1547, the RMS value is a/√3 and ARV is a/2

    For the sawtooth wave is 2/√3, the RMS value is a/√3 and ARV is a/2

    For the Gaussian noise is 2/√3, the RMS value is 1/√3 and ARV is 1/2



So for a sawtooth that would suggest 1.15 so possibly the formula would be

N = V/( 4 x 1.15 x f x B x A)

'a' is the peak amplitude.

I will redo my thoughts as the rms Voltages and current for the sawtooth also changes to 1/√3 so the rms figures I have used would be out as well.



I will do a compare.
