Mutual Inductance: Formula & Coaxial Loop Model

Click For Summary

Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around the calculation of mutual inductance for a single-layer coil with a rectangular cross-section wound on a cylindrical form. Participants explore the possibility of using a coaxial loops model to approximate mutual inductance and seek specific formulas related to this scenario.

Discussion Character

  • Technical explanation
  • Exploratory
  • Mathematical reasoning

Main Points Raised

  • Mica inquires about the formulas for mutual inductance for a single-layer coil and whether the coaxial loops model can be applied.
  • One participant provides a formula for mutual inductance: M21 = N2Φ21/I1.
  • Mica requests a specific form for mutual inductance involving elliptic integrals, suggesting a formula: M12 = m (a1a2)1/2 2/k [(1-k2/2) K(k) – E(k)], with k defined in terms of a1, a2, and h.
  • Another participant corrects Mica's formula, reiterating the same expression for M12 and asking for clarification on the variables involved.
  • Mica elaborates on the system, explaining how to find total inductance by considering self-inductance, mutual inductance between loops, and mutual inductance between the coil and the conductor.
  • Mica notes a change in the wire's cross-section and seeks ideas for calculating mutual inductance in this modified scenario.
  • Several participants express the need for more time to analyze the provided information and formulas.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

The discussion does not reach a consensus on the formulas or methods for calculating mutual inductance, and multiple viewpoints and approaches are presented without resolution.

Contextual Notes

Participants reference specific mathematical forms and integrals, but there are unresolved aspects regarding the definitions of variables and the applicability of the coaxial loops model to the described systems.

Hi everyone,

I'am trying to find the formulas of the mutual inductance of an one single layer coil (the cross section is rectangular i.e. the wire is rectangular or a round loop with rectangular cross section)on cylindrical winding form. Does anyone know how to calculate this mutual inductance? Can I approximate the mutual inductance with the coaxial loops model?

Thanks,

Mica

Hi,

Thanks for yours response.
I would like to have a form like this :

M12 = m (a1a2)1/2 2/k [(1-k2/2) K(k) – E(k)],
k= (4 a1a2 / ((a1 + a2) + h2))
and K(k), E(k)] are elliptic integrals

This is for coaxial loops .

Is it possible to obtain like this form?

Regards,
Mica
 
Hi,

The correct formulas is :

M12 = (a1a2)1/2 2/k [(1-k2/2) K(k) – E(k)],
k= (4 a1a2 / ((a1 + a2) + h2))
and K(k), E(k)] are elliptic integrals

and another question : how can you subscript or postscript the lettres?

Thanks,

Mica
 
I appologize. I didn't expect you to be so far along in math. In that case, please try to describe your general situation again. Is the cross-section of the wire itself important to you, or only the shape of the loop (cross-section of coil)? Are the loops coplanar? What are a1 and a2?

For future reference, if you want to find out how to do the scipts, or any special characters that you see in someone else's post, then you can click on the "quote" button to see how they did it.
 
Hi,

You are a polite person, you don’t need to apologize, you are helping me.

I have a coil (single layer ) which wound around a cylindrical conductor. I explain.
If I have such system, I can find the total inductance by breaking down into three parts.

1)Find the self-inductance (which is the inductance of each loop)
2)Find the mutual inductance (which is between loops i.e. loop1 with loop2, loop1 with loop3, vice versa, etc.)
3)Find the mutual inductance between the coil and the conductor ( assume the coil can be a cylindrical conductor if the loops are close)

So, the total inductance is the sum of the three statements above. The second and third statement can be approximate by use filaments (see p.1 attachment Use filament example).

I have the same system but the only change is the wire is round with a cross section rectangular . I can call it “ single layer coil with round wire but the cross section is rectangular which wound on a cylindrical conductor”. I found the self conductance for this system. (see attachment p.1 Disk coil example) But for the mutual inductance I didn’t find it. Any ideas will be appreciate. I will send the two attachment separately because of their size.

I'll have to look at this stuff for a while.
