Inductance in a DC Circuit topics include: inductive and non-inductive circuits, ferromagnetic cored inductor, inductive circuit growth, growth and decay analysis, lr networks transients, mutual inductance, coupling coefficient, coils connected in series, inductor and inductance types. In a DC circuit, an inductor acts like a short circuit when the current is constant. This means that the current flows through it without any voltage drop.  Here are some other things an inductor does in a DC circuit: It can be thought of as a temporary current source. It always wants to maintain current... Show more
