Calculating temp rise in copper wire
Thanks for your reply. I already know what the power consumption is. What I'm after is the rise in temperature due to the power. I don't think this is a hard question. I'm sure there is some smart physics guy/gal on this forum that can answer it quickly. I think the winding interaction and...- philopher

Calculating temp rise in copper wire
I'm not really concerned about the ferrite loss. For argument sake, let's ignore it or throw it out of the eqn. Is there a method/approach to solving this problem? I spoke with EE Phd's and scoured the internet for two days with no solution. I would suspect this was a rather simple...- philopher

Calculating temp rise in copper wire
I'm not sure if this question belongs in the forum or the physics forum, I guess I'll post it there as well. I'm trying to calculate the temperature rise in a coil of wire (27AWG) wound around a toroid. The current through the wire is ~0.5A with a calculated voltage drop of 14.64mV across the...- philopher
