  Toroid - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A toroid is a doughnut-shaped object whose surface is a torus.
Toroidal coils reduce resistance, due to the larger diameter and smaller number of turns in the winding.
The magnetic flux in a toroid is confined to the core, preventing its energy from being absorbed by nearby objects.

 toroid - a Whatis.com definition
A toroid is a coil of insulated or enameled wire wound on a donut-shaped form made of powdered iron.
A toroid is used as an inductor in electronic circuits, especially at low frequencies where comparatively large inductances are necessary.
Toroidal coils of a given inductance can carry more current than solenoidal coils of similar size, because larger-diameter wires can be used, and the total amount of wire is less, reducing the resistance.

 THE TOROID DEVICES
In the toroid device, a new method of supporting the gasket material surrounding the sample and the central portion of the anvils is used, with the object of reducing the anvil deformation and gasket extrusion.
Toroid is an anvil type device consisting of two parts of relatively small size and weight which can be installed in any hydraulic press.
To illustrate the experimental possibilities of the toroid device, we consider briefly the design of liquid-filled ampoule for high temperature measurements of magnetic susceptibility and the strain gauge technique for studies of the equation of state at room temperature.

 MEC: Why are Toroid Transformers Better?
As long as the core cross section is held constant, the height and diameter for the toroidal may be economically varied to accommodate equipment design requirements - a great help when designing low profile, slim line equipment.
Toroidals have no air gaps: primaries and secondaries are wound uniformly around the entire core.
the core of a toroidal s formed from a single strip of grain-oriented electrical grade silicon steel tightly wound in the form of a clock spring with the ends spot-welded i place.

 ToroidalSpace
A pure, coherent harmonic source is fed through the "portacle" - the modulating filter generated from the individual's voicing - and focused to a 0-dimensional point at the vortex thread (or "origin") of the flowing torus.
The torus, however, is not the most practical format for presentation, as the partials populating the interior or back-facing surfaces would be obscured from view.
Unfolding the native toroidal space and projecting it into a 2-dimensional matrix allows us to see every partial in a uniform grid.

 Toroids
These toroids are said to be wound with a certain "sense" (reference of one winding to another) that must be maintained for the circuit to perform properly.
In this picture L18 is a toroid using a single wire (it has 2 leads), T5 is a transformer wound with two separate pieces of wire (it has 4 leads) and T3 is a bi-filar (two wires twisted together) transformer (it has 4 leads).
Place the leads from the ohmmeter on the solder pads (not the bare leads) of two of the leads from the same winding of the toroid or that are electrically connected in the circuit.

Toroid Corporation of Maryland (TCM) is a privately held corporation, founded in 1982.
Prior to immigrating from Sweden in 1982, Gunnar Ennerfelt had founded Toroid Transformator AB (TTAB) in Vaxjo, Sweden in 1978, preceded by five years as the president of Transductor AB, a company that pioneered the development of labor saving manufacturing methods of power toroids in the late sixties.
Toroidal DC filter chokes for 60Hz were introduced to offer a better solution to using large filter capacitors for applications with high voltage requirements.

 The Toroid Equivalent Circuit   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
RT is a 50 Ohm terminator, & ctloop is the measured capacitance between the test loop and ground (18pF -- the toroid response really isn't affected by this, but it was put in anyway).
The values of ltor and ctor were determined by fitting a response function to the measured frequency response of each toroid.
In the real spice circuit, the toroid circuit was attached to the integrator by removing RT2 and VL2, and attaching node #8 to node #61 of the integrator.

 CUI Inc | Press Room | New Low Cost Toroid Transformers from CUI
Toroids represent a significant advantage over EI type transformers in size, shape, and function.
Primarily, the length of the winding is shorter than an identical EI type transformer because the copper wire is spread over the entire core.
Toroids are the most recent addition to CUI’s new line of transformers, which include R-Core and laminated types.

 Toroid   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
The toroid serves three purposes when used as the top terminal on a Tesla coil.
As mentioned in the theory section, it forms a capacitor with respect to ground and thus helps to determine the frequency at which the secondary oscillates.
Lastly, the large radius of curvature inherent to the toroid shape helps to prevent arc breakout until the secondary potential has risen very high.

 Colliding Plasma Toroid Clean-Energy Breakthrough
This is possible because of the self-organized nature of the plasma toroids which minimizes the plasma forces.
“The D version plasma toroid is a spheromak, the B version plasma toroid is a spheromak, and the P version plasma toroid is a spheromak, the difference being the kind of ions each has.
He defines the “spheromak” as the plasma toroid configuration itself since there is no single way to produce them and hence no “spheromak generator,” unlike a tokomak for example.

 diyAudio Forums - toroid for car amp smps
Leakage inductance with ferrite toroid transformers is about the same obtained with EI or EE standard cores, provided the same core materials and sandwitching winding techniques are used, but it's almost imposible to get perfect sandwitching in a toroidal core so coupling tends to be worse
A toroid can be good for containing magnetic fields and this is important in the certain applications, such as a 50/60Hz power transformer for an audio amp.
Toroid cores work best when the number of primary and secondary turns is the same or a close multiple of each other, such as 2, 3, or 4 to 1.

The clearance between the outer boundary of the dipole iron and the inner boundary of the toroid iron is ~ 1 cm.
The BH used was the same that was applied to the most recent Minos toroid studies, and is based on measurements of Minos toroid steel.
Because the hole in the center of the toroid iron is not square, there is about 4% more steel available for flux at theta = 0, which accounts for the consistently lower field along that line when the dipole is not present.
