I got it!!!!!! Did a google search and was able to figure out the
meaning.

Turns out the inductance of a square, rectange of triangle is almost
teh same as long as the circumfernce, and wire diameter are constant.

Very interesting.

For 12 meters of .01 meter diameter wire, the inductance ranges from
13.7 to 14.0 uh regardless of the shape.

Thanks so much. It's just what I needed, the calculator is handy, I've
bookmarked it.

Regards,

What's the approximate inductance for a single turn square loop, 10
feet per side in free space (if that matters)? There should be an easy
way to calculate this, maybe there is, but I'm not aware of it.

What's the relative permeability of air??

They give this statement on the help page, but I don't understand what
it means.

Note: µ0 = 4¶·10-7 [Hm-1] (Absolute Permeability)

Thanks,
