  2. Solenoid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solenoid

    the inductance of a solenoid follows as =. A table of inductance for short solenoids of various diameter to length ratios has been calculated by Dellinger, Whittmore, and Ould. [18] This, and the inductance of more complicated shapes, can be derived from Maxwell's equations. For rigid air-core coils, inductance is a function of coil geometry ...

  3. Solenoid (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solenoid_(engineering)

    The solenoid can be useful for positioning, stopping mid-stroke, or for low velocity actuation; especially in a closed loop control system. A uni-directional solenoid would actuate against an opposing force or a dual solenoid system would be self cycling. The proportional concept is more fully described in SAE publication 860759 (1986).

  4. Inductance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inductance

    When this is combined with the definition of inductance =, it follows that the inductance of a solenoid is given by: =. Therefore, for air-core coils, inductance is a function of coil geometry and number of turns, and is independent of current.

  5. Electromagnetic induction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_induction

    A solenoid The longitudinal cross section of a solenoid with a constant electrical current running through it. The magnetic field lines are indicated, with their direction shown by arrows. The magnetic flux corresponds to the 'density of field lines'. The magnetic flux is thus densest in the middle of the solenoid, and weakest outside of it.

  6. Blocking oscillator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blocking_oscillator

    L p, primary (self-)inductance, a value determined by the number of primary turns N p squared, and an "inductance factor" A L. Self-inductance is often written as L p = A L ×N p 2 ×10 −9 henries. [1] R, combined switch and primary resistance; U p, energy stored in the flux of the magnetic field in the windings, as represented by the ...

  7. Anderson's bridge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anderson's_bridge

    The balance conditions for Anderson's bridge or, equivalently the values of the self-inductance and resistance of the given coil can be found using basic circuit analysis techniques such as KCL, KVL and using phasors. Consider the circuit diagram of Anderson's bridge in the given figure.

  8. Solenoid valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solenoid_valve

    Solenoid valves. A solenoid valve is an electromechanically operated valve.. Solenoid valves differ in the characteristics of the electric current they use, the strength of the magnetic field they generate, the mechanism they use to regulate the fluid, and the type and characteristics of fluid they control.

  9. Induction generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Induction_generator

    In operation as a motor, the stator flux rotation is at the synchronous speed, which is faster than the rotor speed. This causes the stator flux to cycle at the slip frequency inducing rotor current through the mutual inductance between the stator and rotor. The induced current create a rotor flux with magnetic polarity opposite to the stator ...
