| Consider our current as a superposition of longitudinal and transverse current, the induction inside the cylinder is determined by the linear current density, therefore, the longitudinal component of induction, which is created by the transverse component of the current, does not depend on its inclination (the number of turns with current crossing a unit length of any line on the surface of the cylinder parallel to its axis does not depend on the angle of inclination of the turns). Therefore, the longitudinal induction component will be as in a conventional solenoid: | | Consider our current as a superposition of longitudinal and transverse current, the induction inside the cylinder is determined by the linear current density, therefore, the longitudinal component of induction, which is created by the transverse component of the current, does not depend on its inclination (the number of turns with current crossing a unit length of any line on the surface of the cylinder parallel to its axis does not depend on the angle of inclination of the turns).
