Altered inductance around a solenoid in a cryostat (from Eddy currents?)

[QUOTE="Baluncore, post: 5968436, member: 447632"] When a solenoid inductor is operated in a conductive box, the current sheet in the coil is reflected back to the inductor as an inverted current, which cancels part of the inductance. There were graphs used to estimate the reduction of inductance based on inductor and box dimensions. If the walls are good conductors there will be a strong reflection with very little power loss. Where a conductive slug is enclosed by a coil, the effective area of the coil is reduced so the inductance is also reduced. That has the opposite effect to a ferrite slug in the coil. You have reported your observations. What would you like to change? Please post a diagram with the detail and dimensions of your system. [/QUOTE]
