Calculating inductance of flat sheet of copper.
However even a straight piece of wire or your electrode has some self inductance this can be important if you are dealing with low impedances 1 ohm at high frequencies 10khz.
On the contrary wires have a certain amount of resistance that increases with length and decreases with diameter.
Enter the coil diameter measured as depicted in the diagram above.
Enter the coil length measured as depicted in the diagram above.
1 inch 0 0254m 2 54cm 25 4mm.
Length of the conductor mm w.
One formula for inductance is as follows.
L is the length in metres.

μr μ r relative permeability.
The inductance of a flat or ribbon wire or a track on a pcb can be calculated with the following equation.
L inductance u r relative permeability of the core material air 1 turns number of turns on the coil area the cross sectional area of the core in square meters including some of the coil as shown in the diagram length length of the coil in meters.

Copper is not a perfect conductor.
You can choose from single layer solenoid multi layer solenoid and flat spiral coil forms.
The dc resistance of a conductor is calculated using the equation where.
