Mutual impedance (inductance) between two parallel conductors

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hi

I would like to find mutual impedance (inductance) between two parallel ac current-carrying conductors (60 Hz). I used mutual_inductance.mph from model library as a guide, however, it is for 2D axisymmetric and circular coils. I found mutual inductance using L12 = mf.VCoil_2/I1/mf.iomega. But I want to verify the result by other two ways shown in the AC/DC Model Library Manual pp 283-284 (line integral of the magnetic flux density and integral of the magnetic vector potential over entire cross section of the conductor). My model is 2D and consists of two conductors separated by a distance. If there are other ways to compute mutual impedance (inductance) between two parallel conductors, please let me know.

Regards,
Akim
