Design and construction of a tesla coil 1680 W, as a tool for teaching basic concepts in electric power systems

Tesla coil is a type of resonant transformer, which operates at high frequencies and raises the voltage, it’s built with two coils electrically coupled into an air core which produces observable effects by the human eye as sparks and electrical discharges. This article presents the design and constr...

description Tesla coil is a type of resonant transformer, which operates at high frequencies and raises the voltage, it’s built with two coils electrically coupled into an air core which produces observable effects by the human eye as sparks and electrical discharges. This article presents the design and construction of a 1680 W Tesla coil with a rupture distance of one meter length. The coil could be used as a teaching learning tool in the teaching of the fundamental concepts of electrical power systems as: corona effect, resonance RLC circuits, electric and magnetic fields, energy transmission without conductors and high voltage.

Tesla coil is a type of resonant transformer, which operates at high frequencies and raises the voltage, it’s built with two coils electrically coupled into an air core which produces observable effects by the human eye as sparks and electrical discharges. This article presents the design and construction of a 1680 W Tesla coil with a rupture distance of one meter length. The coil could be used as a teaching learning tool in the teaching of the fundamental concepts of electrical power systems as: corona effect, resonance RLC circuits, electric and magnetic fields, energy transmission without conductors and high voltage. La Bobina de Tesla es un tipo de transformador resonante, funciona a elevadas frecuencias y eleva la tensión, construida con dos bobinas acopladas eléctricamente en un núcleo de aire la cual produce efectos observables por el ojo humano como chispas y descargas eléctricas. Este artículo presenta el diseño y construcción de una Bobina de Tesla de 1680 W con una distancia de ruptura de 1 m de longitud, la cual puede ser empleada como herramienta didáctica y pedagógica para la enseñanza de los conceptos fundamentales de sistemas eléctricos de potencia, como: efecto corona, resonancia de circuitos RLC, campos eléctricos y magnéticos, transmisión de energía sin conductores y alta tensión.
