Magnetic Field – Solenoid Calculator
The magnetic field generated by the coil is given by its inductance (geometry of the coil) and flowing current. For the solenoid coil, the inductance is given by:
\[ L = μ{\frac{N^{2}S}{l}} \]
where µ is the permeability of the environment inside of the coil (could be air or yoke to increase the magnetic field generated by the coil), N is the number of windings, S is the cross-section area of the coil and l is its length.

Then magnetic field generated by the current I flowing through the coil is:
\[ B = {\frac{L.I}{NS}} \]
