    Building an LC Circuit powered by 60Hz AC Current

    Sophiecentaur, Yeah, I've looked a lot into this and there are companies that make this type of power transfer for buses at a range of ~2ft. I know the limitations of this, but I've already built the coils and in it for the long haul. litup, I was actually looking into changing the...

    Building an LC Circuit powered by 60Hz AC Current

    Naty1, The equation says the the frequency w is equal to the inverse square root of the inductance times the capacitance of the circuit. Yes, this is like a transformer but the goal is to transfer power at a distance greater than in a transformer.

    Building an LC Circuit powered by 60Hz AC Current

    Thank you for responding, So should I use the w formula and plug in the capacitor for a desired frequency? The primary coil I have has an inductance of 640uH and the capacitors I have range from 0.1uF to 5uF. Can I use these values to define the frequency myself? Basically, the frequency of...

    Building an LC Circuit powered by 60Hz AC Current

    Hey guys, So I'm working on this project, and I'm trying to make two coils of different diameters to be tuned to the same resonance frequency. I got the equation ω=1/(LC)^0.5 for the frequency. My thinking was that the frequency of the wall power shouldn't matter because the resonance...
