Abstract

The resistance and inductance of an inductor working at high frequencies depend on frequency because of eddy currents caused by the skin and proximity effects. In addition, the stray capacitance among winding coils would give significant influence. This paper proposes an equivalent circuit model which can consider the displacement and eddy currents simultaneously in frequency and time domain. In the proposed circuit model, the capacitance and complex inductance are determined by solving electrostatic and magnetostatic equations with finite element method (FEM). It is shown that the input impedance of an air-core coil is consistent with that computed by FEM at low frequencies. Moreover, the former is shown to be consistent with the measured result.
