Overview of TransTwist UDP (without wires)
Overview of TransTwist UDP (with colorful wires)
- Overview of TransTwist UDP (without wires) and Overview of TransTwist UDP (with colorful wires) give an overview of the TransTwist UDP. The difference between them is Overview of TransTwist UDP (with colorful wires) has 4 colorful wires inside the insulator whereas Overview of TransTwist UDP (without wires) has nothing in its insulator.
- In Overview of TransTwist UDP (without wires) and Overview of TransTwist UDP (with colorful wires) and also other figures like Gaps-related parameters of TransTwist UDP (gray Object: InfoCore set to 1, Red Object: InfoCore set to 2, Colorful Wires: InfoCore set to 3 to 6), objects in different colors are all TransTwist UDP but with different InfoCore values. For example, in Figure 1-6 , the gray object is a TransTwist UDP whose InfoCore value is 1(core), while red, blue, green and yellow objects (wires) are also TransTwist UDPs whose InfoCore values are 3, 4, 5, and 6 respectively. Also, the value of the InfoCore of pink tube that covers the wires is 2 (insulator). To draw this kind of figure, copy and paste the TransTwist UDP (or manually create multiples of this UDP) and then change their InfoCore values and colors.
- The reason for making colorful figures here is to show the parameters of the TransTwist UDP more clearly.
- The difference between 3D parameters of TransTwist UDP (gray Object: InfoCore set to 1, Red Object: InfoCore set to 2) and 3D parameters of TransTwist UDP (gray Object: InfoCore set to 1, Red Object: InfoCore set to 2) is the parameter TurnsCoil, which means the number of turns for each coil (only one coil in each figure). There are 2 turns for the coil in Figure 1-4 whereas there is only 1 turn for the coil in 3D parameters of TransTwist UDP (gray Object: InfoCore set to 1, Red Object: InfoCore set to 2).
- The purpose of Coil-related parameters of TransTwist UDP (gray Object: InfoCore set to 1, Red Object: InfoCore set to 2) is to show the concept of the parameter Coils. Note that when the value of Coils is 2 in this figure, the two coils are disconnected. For a comparison, see the one coil shown in Gaps-related parameters of TransTwist UDP (gray Object: InfoCore set to 1, Red Object: InfoCore set to 2, Colorful Wires: InfoCore set to 3 to 6).
- The purpose of GapEndTurns of TransTwist UDP (gray Object: InfoCore set to 1, Red Object: InfoCore set to 2) is to show the parameter of GapEndTurns, which is useful only when the value of TurnsCoil is larger than 2.
- The results of parameter TurnsTwist are difficult to show in a figure. It is used to define the number of twist turns in one coil turn for each coil (or wire). As shown in LeakEndExt of TransTwist UDP (gray Object: InfoCore set to 1, Red Object: InfoCore set to 2, Colorful Wires: InfoCore set to 3 to 6), the green wire is twisted 0.5 turn at the bottom of the core. Then, for the entire coil turn, it may be twisted 3 to 3.5 twist turns (0.5 to 1 turn on the top of the core, and 1 turn on each side of the core).
