Is there any TC software available that calculates Lm and/or k for common coil configurations?

Does anyone know of any software that can calculate an inductance matrix for various air-core coil configurations? (I have SW that seems to work ok for cylindrical coils, but I can't seem to get it to work for flat spiral strip type coils).

I have a question about JavaTC: Does anyone know if both the primary and secondary can be a flat spiral coil, or does the secondary have to be a helix?

The reason I ask is because there is no provision for "ribbon" in the secondary part of it (like there is for the primary).

Edit:

I was just reading some documentation about MandK, and it says that one of the coils needs to be a single layer solenoid.

Do you know if it's available the ".for" FORTRAN code for the program MandK in place of the ".exe" for windows?

Thankx

The only version i know of is the windows .EXE version. Its available from Terry's website i believe at Link2 You'll probably have to search a bit to find it though.
