What is Inductor?



  • Inductor is the basic parameter of any electrical circuit. Inductor is nothing but a simple coil winding. Inductor is widely use in electrical as like resistor. All basic information is shown below.

  • Definition


 A copper wire wound into a coil on the core is called inductor. Inductor also known as chock or reactor.


  • Symbol

  • Description


Inductor is passive element. Inductance of inductor is depends on length of coil, number of turns in coil, area encircled by coil and also material of core.

Mathematically,

                                    L= Î¼N2A / l

                             Where, L= inductance in henri (H)
                                          N= number of turns into coil
                                          A= area encircled by coil 
                                          l =  length of coil (m)
                                          Î¼= permeability (Wb/A.m)

  • When, we apply current at one side of the coil, magnetic field is produce around the coil. If the area of coil is large and also by change core material then strong magnetic field is produced around the coil.

  • If we apply current at the left to right side than magnetic field is produce in clockwise direction and vice versa.

  • Inductor is capable to stores the energy in form of magnetic energy.

  • Inductor does not allow sudden change in current.

  • Series Connection Formula:

                  L= L1+L2+L3+.....+Ln


  • Parallel Connection Formula:

                 1/L = 1/L1 + 1/L2 + 1/L3 +....+ 1/Ln


  • Types of Inductor


  1.  Air core type inductor   
  2.  Iron core type inductor
  3.  Ferrite core type inductor
  4.  Multy level inductor
  5.  Thin film inductor

  • Different types of inductor images

  3. Sensors
  4. Motors
  5. Fan... etc...

Introduction to Arduino | Pin Function of Arduino | Working Process of Arduino

Introduction to Arduino | Pin Function of Arduino | Working Process of Arduino Introduction to Arduino | Pin Function of Arduino | Working Process of Arduino Introduction To Arduino Arduino is an Italian company that designs and manufactures Open Source Hardware (Microcontroller) and Open Source software or IDE (Integrated Development Environment). Arduino hardware is such a programmable computerized platform, by working on which the user can combine the hardware and software and prepare the electronic brain according to his own and can control the electronic devices from that electronic brain. What is arduino? If you want to understand more easily, then we can say that Arduino microcontroller is an empty brain, in which you can upload memory by coding or programming through arduino software, so these are called open source. Arduino works like a CPU of a board computer. Right now the microcontroller of the arduino of this time that we can take up is lik

Variable Inductance Transducer | Classification Of Variable Inductance Transducer Variable Inductance Transducer | Classification Of Variable Inductance Transducer These are based on a change in the magnetic characteristic of an electrical circuit in response to a measurand which may be displacement, velocity, acceleration etc. Variable inductive transducer may be classified as follows: 1.Self-generating type In this type voltage is generated because of the relative motion between a conductor and a magnetic field. These may be further classified as follows: (A)Electromagnetic type (B)Electrodynamic type (C)Eddy current type 2.Passive type In this type the motion of an object results in change in the inductance of the coils of the transducer. These may be further classified as follows: (A)Variable reluctance (B)Mutual inductance (C)Differential transfer type 1.Self-generating Type (A)Eleotromagnetic t
