electricpy.passive.air_core_inductance(d: float, coil_l: float, n: int)[source]¶

Compute Inductance of Air Core Inductor.

Air core inductors that consist of a coil of conducting wire with no core. They are used in all sorts of electronic devices like radios and computers.

$$\frac{d^2\cdot n^2}{457418\cdot d+1016127\cdot l}$$

Parameters:¶

d : float¶

Coil diameter, measured in meters

coil_l : float¶

Coil length, measured in meters

n : int¶

Number of inductor turns

Return type:¶

float Inductance of air core inductor in Henry’s (H)
