    Abstract

    Large diameter, air-cored, coaxially configured magnetic coils of rectangular winding cross sections have been envisaged for generating extremely homogenous magnetic fields over a large volume of space. Optimized magnetic field balancing parameters and dimensions for a coil configuration were experimentally developed, verified, and their results are presented. The developed design has made it possible to generate extremely homogenous magnetic fields in a large extended cylindrical region of more than 1 2 of the coil's diameter, which requires the winding cross-section thickness to have a width ratio of a relatively small integer. Furthermore, field uniformity regions can be extended to more than one and a half times as can be achieved with coils of negligible winding cross section by employing balancing parameters method. © 2008 American Institute of Physics.
