How to Design a Coil to Achieve 0.5 Tesla?

AI Thread Summary
A mechanical engineering student seeks guidance on designing a coil to generate 0.5 Tesla within its core for a project. Despite extensive online research, the student has not found sufficient information. The discussion highlights the need for practical advice on coil design parameters, such as wire gauge, number of turns, and current requirements. A suggestion is made to consult Wikipedia for foundational knowledge on solenoids. The conversation emphasizes the importance of understanding electromagnetic principles in achieving the desired magnetic field strength.

hello everybody
i'm a student to mechanical engineering and I'm in my last year of my studies.
in this year i supose to make a project and in part of my project i need to know how to design a coil that will gives me 0.5 tesla inside the core of the coil.
unfortunatly, after a lot of searches in the internet i still didn't know how to do that.
it will be great if someone could help me to figure that problem.
thank's to all.

Did you ever look at wikipedia?

Hey guys. I have a question related to electricity and alternating current. Say an alien fictional society developed electricity, and settled on a standard like 73V AC current at 46 Hz. How would appliances be designed, and what impact would the lower frequency and voltage have on transformers, wiring, TVs, computers, LEDs, motors, and heating, assuming the laws of physics and technology are the same as on Earth?
While I was rolling out a shielded cable, a though came to my mind - what happens to the current flow in the cable if there came a short between the wire and the shield in both ends of the cable? For simplicity, lets assume a 1-wire copper wire wrapped in an aluminum shield. The wire and the shield has the same cross section area. There are insulating material between them, and in both ends there is a short between them. My first thought, the total resistance of the cable would be reduced...
I used to be an HVAC technician. One time I had a service call in which there was no power to the thermostat. The thermostat did not have power because the fuse in the air handler was blown. The fuse in the air handler was blown because there was a low voltage short. The rubber coating on one of the thermostat wires was chewed off by a rodent. The exposed metal in the thermostat wire was touching the metal cabinet of the air handler. This was a low voltage short. This low voltage...
