The Shape Memory Alloys (SMA) is part of an active material class due to a special characteristic, called Shape Memory Effect (SME) that can be activated by a thermal field. In general these materials are made by metallic alloys and belong to a group of conducting materials with electromagnetic properties when circulated by an electric current. If geometrically configured as an inductor and stimulated with an alternating current allows the variable magnetic induction provided by the magnetic flux inside the coil. Using the thermomechanical shape change and the magnetic induction characteristics, this paper presents a study and development of a variable inductor with an alloy Ni-Ti. This study is based in inductance variation through geometric variation of coils made of shape memory wire and keeping the magnetic permeability constant. It was also observed variations in magnetic inductance due to change in temperature through electrical current, showing a possible close relationship with the phase transformation temperature of the material. To collect the experimental results were necessary the development of SME inductors with ferrite nucleus. Results are presented for the inductance variation related to length and temperature variation of a SMA inductor.
