I changed the shape from square to circle. Height and width of the loop are 1 meter.
This means that one turn changed from 2.80 meters to 3.14 meters. In this case i have used two turns = 6.28 meters.
I replaced the thin wire with 2.5 mm² wire. this produces a smaller coil resistance, so a higher Q value.
The results:
The coil value increased a bit from 12.6 µH to 13.3 µH. RL is the series resistance of the inductor that becomes smaller due to the larger wire diameter.
Smaller RL means higher Q.
