frank c 969 Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 (edited) I was under the belief that to determine the approximate comparasion size on elipticle vrs. round coilsYou add the length and width of the ellipticle and divide by 2 to get an approximate comparision size of a round.Example 7 x 14 coil = 21 divide by 2 = approx 10.5 inch round comparable coilDoes anyone know if I am on track with this formula ??

nvchris 76 Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 In elliptical's the width is the biggest factor on depth. There is no hard perfect formula for what you want.Use several methods then average the results.i.e compare total area compare just the widthwidth to length ratioIn calculations for statistic use the "law of large numbers" …… the more examples/samples the more accurate the results.Or just use the nvchris method , big round ones rule! My personal favorite current 'All around" is the NF- 17EM #2 is the stock Commander RM #3 is the NF-16RM. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
homefire 2,581 Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 This is supose to tell you the Equial Size Round to a given Eliptical Coil.http://www.csgnetwork.com/circumellipse.html Quote Link to post Share on other sites
frank c 969 Posted January 18, 2013 Author Share Posted January 18, 2013 (edited) Thanks Homefire alot of good links info there.Yes circumference is determined than you can compare to various size round circumferences.It works out like I had originally thought.

Hoser John 1,240 Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 Actually the coil size isn't what matters--it's -who-what-where-and how whats' inside packaged,wraped and or coiled that determines the most bang for the buck-John Quote Link to post Share on other sites
garimpo 2,301 Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 Trevor Ferraresso the CEO of Coiltek says to get a comparison of a elliptical coil to the equivalent size ofround coil just add the length and width of the elliptical and divide the answer by 2.....

frank c 969 Posted January 21, 2013 Author Share Posted January 21, 2013 Thanks Don for confirming my idea. Thats the general formula I've been used to using over the years just wanted to see if anyone had anything much different to consider. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
