Hi Wayne, All
Because of the NASA work Intersonics did, the first 13 of my Patents were assigned to that company and then its patent holding company.
While I am the inventor, I do not own any of them and don’t use any of them currently.
Sounds like John has worn these shoes too, spot on, sorry to hear it.
Well the up side is it was a “learning experience”.
A couple things, radiation is how the heat from a light bulb filament heats the glass or how the heat from combustion is transferred in the “flash” to the metal around it.
Heat does not radiate through metal, think like light, photons that is radiation and it isn’t comparatively significant until something is real pretty hot. Look up Doug Button’s paper, I think he had the breakdown.
You say” Those work as a radiant cooler until they become hot.” Yet, like light, one can’t radiate cool or darkness, they are simply lower energy states.
My point is that in order for the magnet to become heated, the air in the gap must conduct most of that energy, since the air is already hot, just remove it.
Of the possible things one could do, it offers the largest increase in phc.
If done as in the Servodrive speakers, the cooling ejects the heat from the cabinet altogether so the increase is long term.
Yes there is a tiny asymmetrical force proportional to cooling flow for a VC, but it is acoustically insignificant in practice and in the example above.
