Hi everyone. I intend to design a solenoid having the following specs :
winding length(l) = 300 mm,
number of turns(N) = 30
area of cross section (A) = 30*60 mm^2
core material (ferrite) relative permeability = 1000
Inductance calculated by the formula L = u*N^2*A/l is giving the value of around .007 H,
but the simulated and post processed inductance is coming around .00016 H. I have attached the Maxwell file. Where am i going wrong ? Kindly look into it if possible.
Your coil, 300mm length, 30 turns = 1 turn every 10mm. Area = width X length, you have 60 X 60 X 30, is this not a volume?. I can not make out what you are doing.

The winding length is 300 mm. And the cross sectional area of the loop is 60*30 . The coil is wound around a cuboid solenoid of the same cross sectional area. I hope its clear now. I will attach a pic if its needed
Hi there
Have you got your answer?
I have the same problem as I am sure ANSYS does not consider my Core's permeability !!!
Can you please advise ?
Cheers
