3D Mutual Inductance Simulation
This 3D simulation demonstrates the concept of mutual inductance between two co-axial solenoids. You can rotate, zoom, and pan the view to examine the solenoids from different angles. When current flows through one solenoid, it creates a magnetic field that induces a voltage in the other solenoid.

Mutual inductance for co-axial solenoids:
M = μ₀ n₁ n₂ π r₁² l
Where:
- μ₀ = permeability of free space (4π × 10⁻⁷ N/A²)
- n₁, n₂ = turns per unit length of solenoids
- r₁ = radius of inner solenoid
- l = length of solenoids
