A tandem multi-core design does little to increase shielding size, yet keeps the caps and cores out where they’re fairly easy to replace during a service call. Reducing downtime is going to be a huge selling point, imo, figuring a quick swap on-site followed in the depot by a nearly complete tear-down to replace the electrodes.

Errr… nope… that was a block diagram, not a blueprint 🙂 The caps in my concept would be no more shielded than required. Actual shields would be in sections and removed as needed for DPF servicing.

As to placing two cores adjacent in the same shielded volume… how close can the cores be before interfering with each other via heat, EM fields, radiation etc ? How would your concept be laid out?
