The value of the normalized internal inductance depends on the current density profile in the toroidal plasma (as it produces the <math>B_\theta(\rho)</math> profile).

The value of the normalized internal inductance depends on the current density profile in the toroidal plasma (as it produces the <math>B_\theta(\rho)</math> profile): a small value of <math>l_i</math> corresponds to a broad current profile.
