The small plate is getting close to 50% of the large.

Quote from: Rodal on 08/01/2015 05:51 pmknowing that 1) L=24 cmHem… taking the longer length L1 = 43.34 mm for the coupling window, according to latest Yang's drawing I get a cavity internal height of 14.87 cm The size of the coupling window may be wrong.However if I follow my first idea of setting the waveguide height as the length of a WR340 waveguide used vertically as in Tajmar's experiment (86.36 mm) I get a cavity length = 22.35 cm, much closer to the 2010 data of 24 cm.

.........and vary Db and Ds subject to this constraint to get 2.45 GHz for TE012 from the exact solutiondoing so, we get:Db = 0.247 cm Ds = 0.114425 cm L = 0.24 cmr1= 0.211022 mr2= 0.455515 mCone half-angle = 15.44 degreesthese numbers represent only a small change from the previous numbers, which gives some level of encouragement, as the previous numbers were obtained from Yang's chart, just eyeballing it, without performing any frequency calculationNotice that these diameters for Yang are close to the diameters of Shawyer's Flight Thruster, the only difference with Flight Thruster is that Yang has a greater length to enable resonating at TE012 for Yang at 2.45GHz instead of TE013 for Flight Thruster at 3.85GHz. Recall that at the time that Yang embarked on her project, the Flight Thruster was the latest and highest effective force design by Shawyer. The longer length of Yang being motivated perhaps by the need to resonate at 2.45 GHz instead of 3.85 GHz.We adopt these numbers as the official Yang geometry and we correct the previous numbers I had entered in the EM Drive Wiki accordingly without further ado.

I'm not comfortable with that.... either the drawing matches the calculated values or it doesn't...

I am extremely comfortable with these dimensions from many constraints, too numerous to explain at the moment.There are many constraints to satisfy. Satisfying natural frequency at 2.45 GHz is non-negotiable, so is TE012, so is to be near the plot she has for frequency vs D/L, and so is L=24 cm.A cone with the dimensions you have from the Yang drawing cannot resonate at 2.45 GHz at TE012As in the movie: something's got to give The most important geometrical constraint from the drawing is the cone half angle. The others you mention are second order and not as important.If it is any comfort to you remember that you thought that Yang's drawings were schematic. There are more important things to base the dimensions on that this drawing. The most important thing to get from her schematic drawings is the cone-half angle.

I think I found out what's going on here...magenta : original technical drawingred : newly calculated YANG valuesyellow : abstracted frustum that does not take the top/bottom cylindrical shapes into count.Note how, conveniently, that this yellow cone-half angle almost resembles the magenta cone-half angle.I suspect that your calculations do not take those top/bottom edges into account...I do not have enough insight in the matter to understand if those are important or not.

actually, look at my new drawing...Dr Rodal's version of the new YANG cavity is in yellow and has a cone half angle is 15.45° (where the initial magenta design had 15.44°). No idea if it is pure luck or if there is a correlation....
No, of course that I don't take those cylindrical corners into account. What matters is the cone half-angleOn purpose I don't take those into account.The cylindrical extensions make the geometry into an irregular geometry and they break the spherical waves.
ExcellentThanks for the outstanding job
@Notsosureofit,EDIT: Never mind. I answered my own dumb question. I shouldn't post before I finish my coffee. The bandwidth used for Q is not the same, but f is. Therefore, it results in;acceleration g = (c2/L)*(delta_f/f), wheredelta_f = (2pi/f)*(fs2 - fb2)Q = f/delta_b (b for bandwidth)N*T = (P/2pi*L*f)*(delta_f/delta_b)This implies a lower frequency, large delta_f/L implies a short length, wide half-angle. Small delta_b implies narrow bandwidth. So a wide stubby frustum with both a smaller small end and a larger big end? Using a narrow band RF amplifier rather than a Magnetron. Just as @TT and Shawyer have said.Thank you.Todd
