Understanding Inductors: The Basics, Types, and Applications

[@jayduffy7615]

I love the "Guy Faux/Anonymous" voice! I imagine that somewhere in the world, there is a savant that cannot speak, but desires to teach the masses, so he/she sits at their keyboard, typing out this amazing presentation on their computer screen. Then does some video editing, adds a voice over, and publishes it on KZbin.

Can we compare inductor with some mechanical or hydraulic elements and what happens to the water wheel when water is flowing into and out? Thanks

[@TheMirsTech]

Certainly! We can draw comparisons between inductors and mechanical or hydraulic elements to better understand their functioning.

Is inductor used in solenoids, closed loop control systems and automobiles motor starters? And how does it work in these applications? Thanks

[@TheMirsTech]

Yes, inductors are used in solenoids, closed-loop control systems, and automobile motor starters: Solenoids: Solenoids are electromechanical devices that generate a magnetic field when an electric current passes through them. An inductor is a key component in a solenoid, as it helps in creating the magnetic field. The inductor is usually in the form of a coil of wire, and when a current flows through the coil, a magnetic field is created around it. This magnetic field interacts with a movable core or plunger, causing it to move and actuate the solenoid's mechanical functions. Closed-loop control systems: Inductors are commonly used in closed-loop control systems, particularly in filters and energy storage applications. In a closed-loop control system, feedback is used to continuously monitor and adjust the system's output. Inductors play a role in such systems by providing energy storage and filtering capabilities. For example, in a power supply circuit, an inductor can be used in combination with capacitors to smooth out fluctuations in the output voltage, reducing ripple and noise. Automobile motor starters: Inductors are employed in motor starters for automobiles to limit the initial current surge when starting the engine. When an automobile engine starts, it requires a significant amount of electrical energy. Inductors, known as starter solenoids or starter relays, are used in the starting circuit to control the flow of current to the motor. The inductor helps to limit the initial surge of current, protecting the motor and electrical components from damage. In all of these applications, the fundamental principle of an inductor's operation is electromagnetic induction. When an electric current flows through a wire coil, a magnetic field is created around it. This magnetic field can store energy, and when the current through the coil changes, the magnetic field induces a voltage in the coil. This property of inductors allows them to store and release energy, control currents, and create magnetic fields, enabling their use in various electrical and electromechanical applications.

Unhelpful stock photos and voice-to-text, repetitive text.

[@stuart6607]

Bizarre robotic voice distracting. Just a normal commentary would be more suitable.

[@TheMirsTech]

Comming very soon

[@TheMirsTech]

Stay tuned If you want to read the said script in written format then visit my blog www.the-mirs-mechatronics.blogspot.com Or just search The Mirs Mechatronics on google

[@stuart6607]

Ok thanks. Still very a informative presentation on induction though.

Oh I can't listen to this animated voice.. shame content look good.
