Charging Inductor Formula.

Calculates the Voltage and Current of an inductor that is charging/storing energy.

$$V_L=V_s\ast e^{\frac{-R\ast t}{L}}//I_L=\frac{V_s}{R}\ast (1-e^{\frac{-R\ast t}{L}})$$

Parameters:¶

t : float¶

Time at which to calculate voltage and current.

Vs : float¶

Charging voltage across inductor and resistor.

R : float¶

Resistance related to inductor.

L : float¶

Inductance value in Henries.

Returns:¶

• Vl (float) – Voltage across inductor at time t.

• Il (float) – Current through inductor at time t.
