Coupled Inductors

Electric Circuits

This module explains the functions of coupled inductors and explores the equations governing their performance. It will present mutual inductance, dot notation, the coupling coefficient, the turns ratio, and finally the ideal transformer. This module will explain how to model coupled inductors and provide modeling examples in MapleSim.
