Inductor Current Calculator
Enter the values of total magnetic flux, MF(Wb) and total inductance, L(H) to determine the value of Inductor current, Ii(A).
Inductor Current Formula:
Inductor current is the electrical current that flows through an inductor, which is a passive component in electronic circuits that stores energy in a magnetic field when electrical current passes through it.
Inductors resist changes in current, making them essential in various applications such as filtering, energy storage, and inductive coupling.
The behaviour of inductors in AC circuits is characterized by their inductance, measured in Henry (H).
The current through an inductor depends on the applied voltage, the inductance, and the rate of change of the magnetic flux.
The relationship between the magnetic flux (MMF), inductance, and inductor current is given by a specific formula.
Inductor current theory involves understanding how inductors respond to changes in voltage and current in both DC and AC circuits.
Inductors play a crucial role in shaping the behaviour of electrical circuits, influencing current flow, and storing energy in magnetic fields.
Inductor current, Ii(A) in amperes is calculated by dividing the total magnetic flux, MF(Wb) in weber by total inductance, L(H) in henry.
Inductor current, Ii(A) = MF(Wb) / L(H)
Ii(A) = inductor current in amperes, A.
MF(Wb) = magnetic flux in weber, Wb.
L(H) = inductance in henry, H.
Inductor Current Calculation:
- Calculate the inductor current for an inductor with a magnetic flux of 50 webers and an inductance of 10 Henry:
Given: MF(Wb) = 50Wb, L(H) = 10H.
Inductor current, Ii(A) = MF(Wb) / L(H)
Ii(A) = 50 / 10
Ii(A) = 5A.
- If the inductor current is 2 amperes and the inductance is 4 Henry, calculate the magnetic flux:
Given: Ii(A) = 2A, L(H) = 4H.
Inductor current, Ii(A) = MF(Wb) / L(H)
MF(Wb) = Ii(A) * L(H)
MF(Wb) = 2 * 4
MF(Wb) = 8Wb.
