In the process of Doing the Math as part of a journey towards
crafting me own mobility, the progress became impeded by the
void of simple tools to aid in seemingly simple calculations.
Therefore I am resolved to fill that space as time allows with
(hopefully) useful wizards and calculators. The first offering
is called: The Archimedes-Winding Calculator Given a length and
diameter of wire, this application will plot out an Archimedes
Spiral and return the number of Turns and the resulting OD. Two
additional parameters are optional: ID and AirGap between the
windings. These can be remitted in mm, meters, inches, and feet.
This Silverlight application executes from a webpage, or it can
be installed onto your desktop; it lives in the "sandbox" and is
quite benign. Please PM me if it misbehaves and I shall work up
an FAQ Example of Use: If you know the flux density of the
potential motor then itÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s possible to calculated the
length and size of the conductor required to achieve a
particular output. If you kn
