inductance calculation

(OP)
how do you calculate the inductance of a multilayer
coil are cored?

RE: inductance calculation

Cable Inductance
L = K + 0.2 *loge(2S / d ) (mH/km)

Where:
S = Axial spacing between conductors within the cable, or
Axial spacing between conductors in a trefoil group, or
1.26 x phase spacing for a flat formation of 3 single core cables
0.5 x pcd of neutral screen for single core neutral screen cables (mm).
d = conductor diameter (or for shaped designs, the diameter of an equivalent circular conductor (mm).


K = constant relating to the conductor formulation

No Cable              K(50Hz)
1                     0.0500
3                     0.0778
7                     0.0642
19                   0.0554
37                   0.0528
61 and over          0.0514
