RE: Mogami paper on Litz cable design

I think it's important to realize that this paper says that simply splitting say a 1mm wire into lots of thinner insulated wires does not affect skin effect at all. He does mention that the winding techniques do - and this is the key. Litz wire needs to be wound in such a way that the individual strands spend time on the surface and in the center of the bundle. Then skin effect can be reduced.
