single-layer air coil in a screen

Single-layer air coil in a screen

The program allows you to calculate the inductance L_e of a single-layer coil with a shield. The inductance value L of an unshielded coil is determined using the same principle as described on the page regarding determining the inductance of a single-layer air coil. The principle for calculating inductance was taken from the book "Construction and Assembly of Amateur Radio Systems" by Zbigniew Faust.

	Body diameter D		[cm]
	Winding length l		[cm]
	Number of turns n		-
	Screen diameter D_e		[cm]
	Screen height l_e		[cm]
	Inductance L (without shield)		[H]
	Inductance L_e (with shield)		[H]

Practical notes:

Please note that the use of a shield reduces the coil's inductance.
Minimum distance of the coil winding edge (see drawing) from the chassis h = D.
When entering data, remember that it is physically impossible for the coil body diameter D to be greater than the screen diameter D_e, or for the winding length on the coil body l to be greater than the screen height l_e. Entering incorrect values will result in error messages appearing in the appropriate data fields.
