Mutual inductance in parallel
Two inductors having inductances L1= 5H and L2=2H and are connected in parallel. The mutual inductance M between the two inductors is 1H. Determine the equivalent inductance (in H) for this system.
With mutual inductance the combined inductance is more complicated to calculate
M=1H
1/Ltotal =( L1 + L2 - 2(M)) / (L1L2 - M^2)
1/Ltotal = (7-2) / (10-1)
1/Ltotal = 5/9
Ltotal = 1.8 H
