Optimization of Magnetic Coil Construction Using Genetic Algorithm Method

Abstract

Abstract In this article, we discuss coil construction that has the right combination of the number of layers and the number of turns per layer. This combination produces a large electromagnetic force with a physical form that is not too large. A magnetic coil can be used as an electromagnetic ejection. The modification of coil construction is done by using the genetic algorithm method. Experiments were carried out using a population of 100 chromosomes and encoded in 8 bits. Then the resulting programming results are calibrated using the FEMM application to obtain a magnetic force profile. The simulation is carried out with a coil forming wire using the #AWG 10 standard which has a length of 3 meter. The results showed that the optimal force was achieved with a coil construction that had 27 layers (nL) and each layer had 38 turns (Tpl).
