Some others are wound on a bobbin made of bakelite plastic ceramic etc. The following is a design tool which calculates the inductance of an air core inductor. This calculator is useful when making antenna matching units low pass filters crystal sets antenna traps resonant circuits or anywhere where an air cored single layer inductor is required. Could this be possible.

An air core inductor is an inductor that does not depend upon a ferromagnetic material to achieve its specified inductance. Diameter and length of inductor are entered in millimetres along with the number of turns. The calculator determines the inductance of a single layer coil. The inductor is a common school use transformer 5000 turn coil with wire diameter about 0 15mm the official air core value is 0 6h however when i calculate the iron core got a result of 105h.

Some inductors are wound without a bobbin and just air as the core. D coil diameter in inches inches l coil length in inches inches n number of turns inductance.
