The comments and answers are helpful. So far, though, it doesn't sound like there's a better solution than the ones I mentioned initially.
What if... we start with a "legitimate" curve set like:
... and "drag" the Rating condition (red) curve downwards for better performance like the dotted line:
That can be done using a formula which modifies the original curve formula in a way that maintains the original general shape while also maintaining the Rating Condition value (35C) so EER remains the same.
It's a completely artificial manipulation of the original curve set, but seems reasonable for a "baseline" coil. When I mentioned in the original post that I "had some ideas" about how to do this, this curve manipulation is what I had in mind.
Any further thoughts from the UMH community?
