COIL AREA: All other factors being equal, greater coil area (as measured<br />

looking lengthwise through the coil, at the cross-section of the core) results in<br />

greater inductance; less coil area results in less inductance.<br />

Explanation: Greater coil area presents less opposition to the formation of<br />

magnetic field flux, for a given amount of field force (amp-turns). L ∝ A<br />
