Toroid - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (220 words)
A toroid is a doughnut-shaped object whose surface is a torus.
Toroidal coils reduce resistance, due to the larger diameter and smaller number of turns in the winding.
The magnetic flux in a toroid is confined to the core, preventing its energy from being absorbed by nearby objects.
toroid - a Whatis.com definition (233 words)
A toroid is a coil of insulated or enameled wire wound on a donut-shaped form made of powdered iron.
A toroid is used as an inductor in electronic circuits, especially at low frequencies where comparatively large inductances are necessary.
Toroidal coils of a given inductance can carry more current than solenoidal coils of similar size, because larger-diameter wires can be used, and the total amount of wire is less, reducing the resistance.
