Abstract: Rosa's mutual inductance correction, used for obtaining round-wire solenoid inductance from the corresponding current-sheet inductance, is difficult to calculate and is traditionally given in tabular form. This article describes accurate approximation formulae which have been fitted to the tabulated data and to a recent exact calculation given by Robert Weaver (see below). A formula given in 2006, before the new calculations became available, is found to fulfil its original accuracy claims but is improved by further parameter adjustment. A truncated series formula given by Grover in 1929 is accurate for large N, but inaccurate for small N. Extending the series in a manner that forces the formula to produce zero when N=1 provides a one-line formula that is accurate to within ±0.000 000 013. Cited documents available: Investigation
