What factors determine the resistance and inductance in a coil?

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The resistance and inductance in a coil are influenced by several factors, including the material of the wire, the number of turns in the coil, and the core material. Higher resistance does not necessarily correlate with higher inductance; they are distinct properties. Measurements taken over time can show a decrease in both resistance and inductance, indicating potential changes in the coil's physical or environmental conditions. Testing methods and specific coil configurations were not detailed in the discussion.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of electromagnetic theory
  • Knowledge of coil construction and materials
  • Familiarity with resistance and inductance measurement techniques
  • Basic principles of electrical circuits
NEXT STEPS
  • Research the impact of wire material on coil resistance and inductance
  • Learn about the relationship between coil turns and inductance
  • Investigate environmental factors affecting coil performance over time
  • Explore measurement techniques for resistance and inductance in coils
USEFUL FOR

Electrical engineers, physics students, hobbyists working with coils, and anyone interested in the properties of inductors in electrical circuits.

Hi

what factors determine the resistance and inductance in a coil and they related i.e. if the resistance is high would the inductance be high ? Additionally, would the resistance and inductance value change over time? I only ask this as we tested the resistance and inductance on our coils after a few months and saw a drop off in both the resistance and inductance values

Thanks in advance

Hello @Milas ,
:welcome: ##\qquad ##!​

Here at PF we value some initiative: what did you find out about inductance from a google expedition so far ?

Is this schoolwork ? Please describe what you did (what coils ?) and what you know already

How did you measure the resistance and the inductance?
