Re: inductance - parallel strips

[Tomislav Borzic <tborzic@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello Jim, I solved this problem.
Problem was that part of the flux was closing through
conductor.So I changed boundary conditions to force
the
flux to stay BETWEEN conductors, not in them.
Femm file is attached.
Results:
L(femm)=1.1517 e-6 H/m

F1 L=lambda* N^2

lambda=mio*b/h,
b=distance between conductors (not their radius)
h-height

L(F1)=1.1 e-6 H/m

***
i have another question, regarding complex inductance.
inductance doesn't depend of current, so often in
numerical
examples it is not given.so if I want to achieve same
result
as numerical (with current not given, but other
parameters are)
how can I solve similar problem in femm?
thanx
Tomislav
