1 1 vote Two magnetically uncoupled inductive coils have $Q$ factors $q_1$ and $q_2$ at the chosen operating frequency. Their respective resistances are $R_1$ and $R_2$. When connected in series, their effective $Q$ factor at the same operating frequency is $q_1R_1+q_2R_2$ $q_1/R_1+q_2/R_2$ $\big(q_1R_1+q_2R_2\big)/\big(R_1+R_2\big)$ $q_1R_2+q_2R_2$ Electromagnetic Fields gate2013-ee coils electromagnetism + – piyag476 330 views answer comment Share Follow 0 reply Please log in or register to add a comment.
