Given a volume and dimensions for an air core electro magnet, how does one determine the wire gauge and number of turns for maximum strength and efficiency? It seems using several wire gauges starting with a smaller gauge near the core and then a larger gauge on the outside would be optimum since the resistance of a single turn near the center would be minimal, while a larger gauge wire on the outside would have less resistance for the increased circumference. Is there some formula for this stuff?
