Powering big machines with Tesla coils

[From: ] [author: ] [Date: 12-06-26] [Hit: ]
Many variations are possible, but most are not called Tesla coils when used for serious purposes. Seimens is using switching technology to produce up to a million volts at up to 100 amps = ten gigawatts at 90,000? hertz, which they rectify and filter for HVDC = high voltage direct current power lines.......
how come the scientists of today do not use Tesla coils to power some of the most power hungry machines out there such as a very large particle accelerator ?

Tesla coils typically supply less than 2 milliamps, which is not enough current for most applications. More than one million volt is possible with a very large Tesla coil.

Is that a giant Tesla coil? Perhaps not as they use ferrite cores = powdered iron instead of air coils. Neil

Tesla coils will not power any machinery, and the voltage is much too low for particle accelerators.
