Tesla

Tesla coil is an electrical resonant transformer circuit designed by Nikola Tesla in 1891 to produce high-voltage, low-current, high frequency alternating-current electricity. It consists of two or three coupled resonant electric circuits that produce higher current than other high-voltage sources. While Tesla coils were originally developed for lighting systems, they are now mainly used for entertainment, education, and research due to their ability to generate high voltage electric discharges.

Tesla coil

Description:-The Tesla coil is an electrical resonant transformer circuit


designed by inventor Nikola Tesla around 1891 as a power supply for
his "System of Electric Lighting". It is used to produce high-voltage,
low-current, high frequency alternating-current electricity.Tesla coils
produce higher current than the other source of high-voltage
discharges, electrostatic machines. Tesla experimented with a number
of different configurations and they consist of two, or sometimes three,
coupled resonant electric circuits.

Apparatus:-9v battery,Battery cap,switch,copper


coil,transistor(2N2222A),Resistor(22k),L.E.D,and connecting wire
Entrepreneurship potential:-Today, although small Tesla coils are used
as leak detectors in scientific high vacuum systems and igniters in arc
welders, their main use is entertainment and educational displays,
Tesla coils are built by many high-voltage enthusiasts, research
institutions, science museums, and independent experimenters.
Although electronic circuit controllers have been developed, Tesla's
original spark gap design is less expensive and has proven extremely
reliable.
