Inductor-Stored Energy

Inductor-stored energy is the energy stored in an inductor, a passive two-terminal electrical component that stores electrical energy in a magnetic field when electric current is flowing through it.

The inductor-stored energy equals half the magnetic inductance times the electric current squared.

Formula

QuantityVariable["E", "Energy"] == (QuantityVariable["I", "ElectricCurrent"]^2*QuantityVariable["L", "MagneticInductance"])/2

symbol description physical quantity
E inductor-stored energy "Energy"
I electric current "ElectricCurrent"
