The magnetic flux and self-inductivity of a thick toroidal current

We investigate numerically the magnetic flux and self-inductivity of a toroidal current $I$ of arbitrary aspect ratio ($R_0/r_0 = 1/\eta$, where $R_0$ and $r_0$ are the major and the minor torus radius, respectively). The total flux $\Psi$ is represented by the sum of the flux outside the torus envelope ($\Psi_o$) and the internal flux within the torus body ($\Psi_i$). Analogously, the total inductivity is expressed as $L = L_o + L_i$. The outside self-inductivity is determined directly from the magnetic flux $\Psi_o$, utilizing $\Psi_o = L_o I$. On the other hand, the internal inductivity is evaluated as the magnetic energy contained in the poloidal field. The calculations are performed for three different radial profiles of the current density, $j(r)$. It is found that $\Psi_o(\eta)$ and $L_o(\eta)$ depend only very weakly on the form of $j(r)$. On the other hand, $\Psi_i$ and $L_i$ do not depend on $\eta$, but depend on the form of $j(r)$. In the range $0.02 \lessapprox \eta \lessapprox 0.5$ the numerical values of $L_o$ can be very well fitted by the function of the form $L_o^{; ; ; ; ; fit1}; ; ; ; ; (\eta) = -A \log(\eta) - B$. Such a relation is analogous to that for a slender-torus, however, the coefficients are different. For $\eta\lesssim0.01$ the slender-torus approximation ($L_o^*$) matches the numerical results better than our function $L_o^{; ; ; ; ; fit1}; ; ; ; ; $, whereas for thicker tori, $L_o^{; ; ; ; ; fit1}; ; ; ; ; $ becomes more appropriate. It is shown that beyond $\eta\gtrapprox 0.1$, the departure of the slender-torus analytical expression from the numerical values becomes greater than 10\, \%, and the difference becomes larger than 100\, \% at $\eta\approx 0.55$. In the range $\eta\gtrapprox 0.5$ the numerical values of $L_o$ can be very well expressed by the function $L_o^{; ; ; ; ; fit2}; ; ; ; ; (\eta)=c_1(1-\eta)^{; ; ; ; ; c_2}; ; ; ; ; $. Furthermore, since the internal flux and inductivity become larger than that outside the envelope, $\Psi_i$ and $L_i$ become larger than $\Psi_o$ and $L_o$. The total inductivity $L_{; ; ; ; ; tot}; ; ; ; ; ^{; ; ; ; ; fit}; ; ; ; ; =L_o^{; ; ; ; ; fit}; ; ; ; ; +L_i$, calculated by appropriately employing our functions $L_o^{; ; ; ; ; fit1}; ; ; ; ; $ and $L_o^{; ; ; ; ; fit2}; ; ; ; ; $, never deviates by more than 1\, \% from the numerically determined values of $L_{; ; ; ; ; tot}; ; ; ; ; $.
