Discharging Inductor Formula.
Calculates the Voltage and Current of an inductor that is discharging its stored energy.
\[I_L=I_0*e^{\frac{-R*t}{L}}// V_L=I_0*R*(1-e^{\frac{-R*t}{L}})\]- Parameters:
t (float) – Time at which to calculate voltage and current.
Io (float) – Initial current traveling through inductor.
R (float) – Resistance being discharged to.
L (float) – Inductance value in Henries.
- Returns:
Vl (float) – Voltage across inductor at time t.
Il (float) – Current through inductor at time t.
