Implementations

impl Solenoid

pub fn new( center: Vec3, axis: Vec3, radius: f32, length: f32, turns: u32, current: f32, ) -> Self

pub fn interior_field(&self) -> Vec3

Interior field of an ideal infinite solenoid: B = mu0 * n * I

pub fn to_loops(&self) -> Vec<CircularLoop>

Convert solenoid to a collection of circular loops.

pub fn field_at(&self, point: Vec3, segments_per_loop: usize) -> Vec3

Field at any point by summing contributions from all loops.

pub fn is_inside(&self, point: Vec3) -> bool

Check if a point is inside the solenoid (approximately).
