Induced voltage vs coil voltage

Project Support
1

Hello,

I am trying to simulate a heating coil set-up. The coil is set to a voltage of 20 V and a current of 400 A. I do not understand how to simulate this correctly. I also do not understand the meaning and how to use voltage RMS, current RMS and induced voltage.

Hi @nynketjeerdema, I’m not very familiar with electromagnetics personally. However, RMS stands for “Root Mean Square”, which can be calculated by this equation (let’s say for voltage):

V_{\text{RMS}} = \sqrt{\frac{1}{T} \int_0^T [v(t)]^2 \, dt} \tag{1}

This is more a matter of researching the available literature and setting up the sim accordingly.
