State the expressions for the effective or equivalent inductance of a combination of a number of inductors connected (a) in series (b) in parallel. Assume that their mutual inductance can be ignored. |
|
Answer» We assume that the inductors are so far apart that their mutual inductance is negligible. (a) For a series combination of a number of inductors, L1 , L2 , L3 , …, the equivalent inductance is Lseries = L1 + L2 + L3 + …….. (b) For a parallel combination of a number of inductors, L1 , L2 , L3 , …, the equivalent inductance is \(\cfrac{1}{L_{pa1rallel}}\) = \(\cfrac{1}{L_1}\) + \(\cfrac{1}{L_2}\) + \(\cfrac{1}{L_3}\) + … |
