Ntesla A program to help design Tesla Coils. Tesla Coils are used to experiment with high voltage, high frequency electricity. You can simulate lightning with a Tesla Coil, and it is easy to generate sparks of a foot or more. It provides a series of design screens where you fill in proposed specifications for the various components of the design. It performs all the necessary calculations for resonant frequency, capacitor size, primary taps, etc, and helps you come up with a balanced, optimal design. Some help text is built-in, and there is also a reference to the tesla archives on funet.
