  2. Electromagnetic coil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_coil

    A common form for closed-core coils is a toroidal core coil, in which the core has the shape of a torus or doughnut, with either a circular or rectangular cross section. This geometry has minimum leakage flux and radiates minimum electromagnetic interference (EMI). A coil with a core which is a straight bar or other non-loop shape is called an ...

  3. Magnetic core - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_core

    A magnetic core is a piece of magnetic material with a high magnetic permeability used to confine and guide magnetic fields in electrical, electromechanical and magnetic devices such as electromagnets, transformers, electric motors, generators, inductors, loudspeakers, magnetic recording heads, and magnetic assemblies.

  4. Toroidal inductors and transformers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toroidal_inductors_and...

    This B field fills space, including inside the transformer core, so in the end, there is a continuous non-zero B field from the primary to the secondary, if the secondary is not open-circuited. The cross product of the E field (sourced from primary currents) and the B field (sourced from the secondary currents) forms the Poynting vector, which ...

  5. Coil winding technology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coil_winding_technology

    In electrical engineering, coil winding is the manufacture of electromagnetic coils. Coils are used as components of circuits, and to provide the magnetic field of motors, transformers, and generators, and in the manufacture of loudspeakers and microphones. The shape and dimensions of a winding are designed to fulfill the particular purpose.

  6. Current limiting reactor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Current_limiting_reactor

    It is desirable that the reactor does not go into magnetic saturation during a short circuit, so generally an air-core coil is used. At low and medium voltages, air-insulated coils are practical; for high transmission voltages, the coils may be immersed in transformer oil. Installation of air-core coils requires consideration of the magnetic ...

  7. Inductor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inductor

    Probably the most common type of variable inductor today is one with a moveable ferrite magnetic core, which can be slid or screwed in or out of the coil. Moving the core farther into the coil increases the permeability, increasing the magnetic field and the inductance. Many inductors used in radio applications (usually less than 100 MHz) use ...

  8. Transformer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transformer

    In electrical engineering, a transformer is a passive component that transfers electrical energy from one electrical circuit to another circuit, or multiple circuits.A varying current in any coil of the transformer produces a varying magnetic flux in the transformer's core, which induces a varying electromotive force (EMF) across any other coils wound around the same core.

  9. Inductance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inductance

    The magnetic field of the coil magnetizes the material of the core, aligning its magnetic domains, and the magnetic field of the core adds to that of the coil, increasing the flux through the coil. This is called a ferromagnetic core inductor. A magnetic core can increase the inductance of a coil by thousands of times.
