E. Baum et J. Beichler, ON THE OPTIMUM DIAMETER OF WIRE FOR COILS WITH FIXED INDUCTANCE AND LENGTH, European transactions on electrical power engineering, 5(4), 1995, pp. 257-262
In this paper an analytical relation is derived for the optimum diamet
er of wire used for winding coils of given inductance and winding brea
dth. The optimum diameter is the (frequency-dependent) diameter; for w
hich the ohmic loss of the coil becomes a minimum. The analysis takes
into account the inductive coupling of the turns, capacitive coupling,
however; is not considered.
