Hi Wyatt, Ron, All,
IF you are old enough, or have done enough research, there IS a direct
conversion, as used in early electrical work. Tesla used these terms in CSN and in
many of his patents.
AS USED BY TESLA: 1 cm of inductance is 1 nH of inductance.
AS USED BY TESLA: 1 cm of capacitance is 1.111... pF of capacitance
The derivation for this is, I believe, somewhere in the list archives.
Hope this helps,

Wyatt,
There is no direct conversion from Centimeters to Henries. Centimeters is a
measure of length and Henries is a measure of Inductance, they are not
directly related. What are you trying to do? Inductance of a cable is sometimes
listed in Henries per foot. That value is not constant and depends on a lot
of variables frequency being a big one.

Hi, Can anyone tell me how to calculate inductance in centimeters? Or
better yet,how I can convert henries,micro-henries,and milli-henries to a
value in centimeters? Can't seem to find a conversion calculator on the
web. Thanks. Wyatt
