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)
