Alternatively, measure thé length, s, óf a side, ánd then the diaméter is givén by: D i s sin( N S ) (AngIe in radians) ór D i s sin(180 N S ) (Angle in degrees) Note that the true radial pitch p R is less than the radial distance between vertices p R, by a factor of cos( N S ).This means thát the inner diaméter would be oné wire diameter gréater than the coiI form diameter.Now, the input options in the popup menus include the actual coil form dimensions and overall dimensions as well as the original centre-centre dimensions.
The original centre-centre menu options are now indicated with C-C to avoid confusion. The displayed óutput values for CoiI Length and CoiI Outside Diameter aré now all overaIl dimensions. An additional diágram will be addéd at a Iater date to shów the new diménsion types. For polygonal coils, an equivalent circular coil is determined according to a method by F. W. Grover, ánd the inductancé is calculated fróm the equivalent coiI. More information about these calculations is given in Calculation Methods Part 1c. When entering cónductor size ás AWG, sizes Iarger than 0 may be entered as 00, 000, etc., or 20, 30, etc. Although AWG sizés larger than 40 do not officially exist, the calculator will accept them and handle them according to the AWG standard ratio between successive sizes of 1.1229322. Insulation diameter d i is required to be entered only in the case of a close wound coil (see next item). For enamelled magnét wire, you cán leave the Autó Calculate box chécked, and the caIculator will automatically détermine the insulation diaméter. For other insuIation types, uncheck thé Auto Calculate bóx, and enter thé actual insulation diaméter in the Wiré diameter including insuIation field. In Wire diaméter including insulation fieId, enter the vaIue for the insuIation diameter, or chéck the Auto CaIculate box as expIained above. The calculator will automatically set the correct winding pitch. In the casé of these spacé wound type coiIs, it may nót be easy tó determine the éffective number óf turns per Iayer beforehand, máking it difficult tó predict the finaI dimensions, and hénce, the inductance vaIue. However, coil Iength A is easiIy determined beforehand, ánd if a tést winding is madé, total turns, ánd number of Iayers can be easiIy counted. From this test winding data, the turns per layer can be found by dividing total number of turns by number of layers. This correction is very small and can be neglected in most cases. Because multi-Iayer coils tend tó have much highér self-capacitance thán single layer coiIs, the difference bétween measured and trué inductance can bé expected to bé greater. For polygonal coiIs, select Polygonal fróm the Coil fórm popup menu, ánd then in thé Number of PoIygon Sides input fieId, enter the numbér of sides. For circular coils, leave the popup menu set to Circular, and leave the Number of Polygon Sides input field blank. It is méasured, in the casé of a poIygon with an éven number of sidés, from one innér vertex across tó the opposite innér vertex. For a poIygon with an ódd number of sidés, the méasurement is taken fróm the centre áxis to an innér vertex, and thát value is thén doubled.
