VIC design session v14: best candidate (Q=27.4, 326.8kHz)
Sweep: Map transition region between 1mH anchor and 0.1mH dead-zone at fixed cell geometry to find intermediate L keeping f_r in-band while raising tank Q beyond anchor's 0.73
Cell: 9mm rod in 13.0mm tube × 100mm, 1 cell(s) parallel → C_eff = 1.19nF, bulk water R = 12014Ω. Water/electrodes (Randles): 2ppm Na+ @ 25°C, surface ×1 → λ_D 53nm, C_dl 21.9µF, cell series R 14.1Ω, displacement current 96.7%, breakdown margin ×363. Chokes: 2 × 0.0001H (45 turns, AWG 20, 5m wire, AC R 0.5Ω each). At resonance f_r = 326.82kHz: Xl = 411Ω, Xc = 411Ω, tank Q = 27.4, coil Q = 446.4. Cell voltage 329V from 12V drive (×27.4), series current 801.3mA. VIOLATIONS: resonance 326.8kHz outside practical 1-100kHz band Score 0.293.
