The width of a 'side' would be 10 times the core's diameter, and the core is centered insite the 'box' axially. So a 10 mm core would have 100mm sides.. Windings don't count. just Core material.
...and a thought occurred to me.. this assumes a round rod... I have to assume, don't know, that if we were using a 'rectangular' or 'flattened' ferrite core we'd reference the widest portion.... hmmm...
Thanks Cutty!!! Missed this earlier... my forum email address wasn't updated, so I haven't been getting notification emails...
Still working on the e-field housing. Haven't decided if I will use external copper foil over PVC or similar yet... but I'll post up when I'm done.
