Hi everyone!
I had a small project out of curiosity to build a safe small solenoid (without a core) that would be continuously powered and maintain the inner magnetic field for long periods of time
So far I have built a coil around a plastic frame with the following characteristics:
-18 awg enamelled copper wirrer
- 46 turns per layer
- 4 layers
- 1.9cm inner diameter
- 3cm outer diameter (approx)
- 5.3cm height
What would be the best way to power it? I have a 12v , 2.3Ah battery available at the moment.
I am more of a biologist, but am starting to learn the basics and it still quite complicated to me, so your help would be greatly appreciated!
