What Formula Calculates Inductance for Jumble Wound Air Coils?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on determining the appropriate inductance formula for jumble wound or random wound air core coils, with varying opinions on whether to use single layer or multilayer formulas. Participants suggest that the multilayer formula is likely the most suitable due to the complexities involved in measuring the thickness of the jumble wound layer and calculating the correction factor for conductor spacing. Estimating an average thickness may be necessary for accurate calculations. There is a call for resources or websites that provide further information on this topic. Overall, the multilayer formula is favored for its applicability to the design challenges presented by jumble wound coils.

I have noticed there are different Inductance formula's for a various types of air coils & there design, single layer spiral, flat wound spiral, multilayer etc.

My question is for the design of Jumble wound --- Random wound air core coils:

What is the Inductance formula for a Jumble wound---Random wound air coil & the necessary dimension points needed to be taken for the caculation.
Some say you use the single layer spiral air coil formula, others say use the multilayer formula & some say neither apply?

Is there a site that i can go to to look this up or can anybody help me out?

Thank You

I think the multi-layer formula is the one to use. The thickness of the jumble wound layer won't be easy to measure, so you may just have to estimate an average. Also, the correction factor for the spacing of the individual conductors won't be easy to calculate either, but I think the multi-layer formula would be best.
 
Thread 'Weird near-field phenomenon I get in my EM simulation'
I recently made a basic simulation of wire antennas and I am not sure if the near field in my simulation is modeled correctly. One of the things that worry me is the fact that sometimes I see in my simulation "movements" in the near field that seems to be faster than the speed of wave propagation I defined (the speed of light in the simulation). Specifically I see "nodes" of low amplitude in the E field that are quickly "emitted" from the antenna and then slow down as they approach the far...
Hello dear reader, a brief introduction: Some 4 years ago someone started developing health related issues, apparently due to exposure to RF & ELF related frequencies and/or fields (Magnetic). This is currently becoming known as EHS. (Electromagnetic hypersensitivity is a claimed sensitivity to electromagnetic fields, to which adverse symptoms are attributed.) She experiences a deep burning sensation throughout her entire body, leaving her in pain and exhausted after a pulse has occurred...
