Consider a conductor of radius r carrying a current I. At a distance x from the center of this conductor, the magnetic field intensity Hx can be found from Ampere’s law:

x xH dl I

1. Flux linkages inside the conductor

Where Hx is the magnetic field intensity at each point along a closed path, dl is a unit vector along that path and Ix is the net current enclosed in the path.

For the homogeneous materials and a circular path of radius x, the magnitude of Hx is constant, and dl is always parallel to Hx. Therefore:

Thus, the magnetic intensity at radius x inside the conductor is

If the relative permeability of the conductor is 1 (non-ferromagnetic materials, such as copper and aluminum), the inductance per meter reduces to

To find the flux linkages external to a conductor, we will consider the portion of flux between two points P1 and P2 that lie at distances D1 and D2 from the center of the conductor.

Inductance of a single-phase 2-wire line

The inductance of a single-phase line consisting of two conductors of radii r spaced by a distance D and both carrying currents of magnitude I flowing into the page in “A” conductor and out of the page in the “B“ conductor.

x xH dl I

Since the path of radius x2 encloses both conductors and the currents are equal and opposite, the net current enclosed is 0 and, therefore, there are no contributions to the total inductance from the magnetic fields at distances greater than D.

Inductance of a single-phase 2-wire transmission lineThe total inductance of a line per unit length in this transmission line is a sum of the internal inductance and the external inductance between the conductor surface (r) and the separation distance (D):

By symmetry, the total inductance of the other line is the same, therefore, the total inductance of a two-wire transmission line is
