Greetings. I'm experimenting with Cockroft-Walton voltage multipliers. It occurs to me that the ability to vary the capacitors during operation might be a quick way to optimize capacitance for the other variables. My fixed capacitors are in the range of 2 uF.
With that in mind, I'm wondering if I could use several (two for each stage), identical variable air gap capacitors submerged in oil to increase their capacitance.
Any thoughts about this? Thanx,
