Hello
I have a Dc-Dc converter and I need to wind my own inductor. The Inductor requires according to calculations 13.02A (rms value). Now the only wire I can find from a local supplier is rated for 11.5A. Obviously the current my Dc-Dc converter will use is bigger in amplitude than that of the wire. If I apply extra cooling (fan) onto the coil will the coil wire be fine? Obviously this is not ideal but its the only wire I can find at this point in time.
