Calculation of Self-inductance01:29

Calculation of Self-inductance

The self-inductance of a circuit, often simply called the inductance, is a purely geometric factor that depends only on the circuit component's structure. More specifically, it depends on the shape and size of the component that lets the flux pass through it, thus inducing an electric field that opposes any current passing through it.
Since the effect of the induced electric field and the back EMF generated depends on the rate of change of current and the self-inductance, the inductance...

Inductors

An inductor is a passive component built to store energy within its magnetic field. It can be fabricated by coiling a wire around a magnetic core. When current is permitted to flow through this inductor, it is observed that the voltage across the inductor is directly proportional to the time rate of change of the current. Mathematically,

Inductors

An inductor, also known as a choke, is a circuit component created to have a specific inductance. Inductors are among the crucial circuit components used in modern electronics, along with resistors and capacitors. They serve as a barrier against changes in a circuit's current. An inductor tends to suppress current changes in an alternating-current circuit that are faster than desired. In a direct-current circuit, an inductor aids in preserving a constant current despite changes in the...

Inductor in an AC Circuit01:16

Inductor in an AC Circuit

The basic components of an inductor are coils or loops of wire that are either wound around a hollow tube former or a ferromagnetic material (iron-cored) to increase their inductive value or inductance. When a voltage is applied across an inductor's terminals, a magnetic field is created, where the inductor stores its energy. The inductor's own self-induced or back emf value controls the growth of the current flowing through it.  This back emf voltage is proportional to the rate of...

Energy Stored in Inductors01:16

Energy Stored in Inductors

An inductor is ingeniously crafted to accumulate energy within its magnetic field. This field is a direct result of the current that meanders through its coiled structure. When this current maintains a steady state, there is no detectable voltage across the inductor, prompting it to mimic the behavior of a short circuit when faced with direct current.
In terms of gauging the energy stored within an inductor, it is equivalent to the integral of the power delivered at every individual moment, all...

Series and Parallel Inductors

In electrical circuits, integrating inductors into the toolkit of passive elements requires navigating the intricacies of series and parallel combinations involving these components. Practical circuits often feature configurations of multiple inductors, and understanding how to determine their equivalent inductance is vital.
For a series connection of N inductors, each carrying the same current, applying Kirchhoff's voltage law unveils a crucial relationship. Substituting the expression for...
