1. An improved high-power, low-loss, high-frequency electrical coil comprising:
- a. at least one turn of Litz wire having a clear unobstructed center channel through which a cooling fluid may be pumped, there being no element between said Litz wire and said center channel, said wire being wound in a circular pattern,b. an electrical insulating material with mechanical strength in which the Litz wire is imbedded.

Abstract
High frequency electrical coils are commonly made out of Litz wire. If the coil is baked and an aqueous phenol solution is pumped through a nylon tube making up the structural core of the Litz wire, the tube will be dissolved out, thereby yielding an unobstructed opening through which a cooling fluid may be pumped. The resultant coil has a vastly improved heat conduction and can tolerate substantially higher currents.

- 5. An improved high-power, low-loss, high-frequency electrical conductor that comprises a Litz wire having an unobstructed hollow center channel with no element between said Litz wire and said hollow center channel, and a low-electrical-loss, high-dielectric insulating cover that provides a structurally sound housing to prevent collapse of the otherwise structurally unstable Litz wire.
