    calculating inductance

    Does anyone have a formula for calculating inductance for a choke using number of turns and cross section. I will be using an old torroid core as a form for the choke. Thanks.
    If it's not nailed down, it's mine.
    If I can pry it loose, it's not nailed down.

    L=(n^2) x Mu x S / l

    l, Length of magnetic material (m)
    S, cross section of magnetic material m^2
    Mu, permeaibility of magnetic material
    n, number of turns

    If you have a inductance and if you know the value of inductance and turn numbers. (these L1 and n1)

    If you want the L2 inductance,

    n2=n1* sqr(L2/L1)

    The length of magnetic material for a torriod core, would that be a mid core circumfrence figure.
