Solenoid Coil Electromagnetic Force

Computes the axial electromagnetic force of a solenoid using: F = (N×I)² × μ₀ × A / (2×L²), where μ₀ = 4π×10⁻⁷ H/m. This is equivalent to the magnetic pressure acting on the cross-sectional area of the core.

Inputs

Current through the solenoid coil in amps

Cross-sectional area of the solenoid core in square metres

Total number of turns in the solenoid coil

Length of the solenoid coil in metres

Results

Length must be greater than zero
