Inductor (L)

Inductor

Inductor is an electrical component that stores energy in magnetic field.
The inductor is made of a coil of conducting wire.
In an electrical circuit schematics, the inductor marked with the letter L.
The inductance is measured in units of Henry [L].
Inductor reduce current in AC circuits and short circuit in DC circuits.

Variable inductor

Inductors in series

For several inductors in series the total equivalent inductance is:
LTotal = L1+L2+L3+...

Inductors in parallel

For several inductors in parallel the total equivalent inductance is:
\frac{1}{L_{Total}}=\frac{1}{L_{1}}+\frac{1}{L_{2}}+\frac{1}{L_{3}}+...

Inductor's voltage

v_L(t)=L\frac{di_L(t)}{dt}

Inductor's current

i_L(t)=i_L(0)+\frac{1}{L}\int_{0}^{t}v_L(\tau)d\tau

Energy of inductor

E_L=\frac{1}{2}LI^2
