Improved prescription for winding an electromagnet
arXiv:2102.00149 · doi:10.1063/5.0063057
Abstract
We describe an improvement on the magnetic scalar potential approach to the design of an electromagnet, which incorporates the need to wind the coil as a helix. Any magnetic field that can be described by a magnetic scalar potential is produced with high fidelity within a Target region; all fields are confined within a larger Return. The helical winding only affects the field in the Return.
