Straight Wire Inductor
Computes the self-inductance of a straight round wire using the Lorenz & Cohen formula: L = 0.00508 × l × (ln(2l/d) − 0.75), where l is the wire length and d is the wire diameter, both in inches. Result is in microhenries.
Inputs
Length of the wire in inches
Diameter of the wire in inches
Results
⚠Length must be greater than zero
