Applying systematic dimensional analysis based linear algebraic methods, we derive the important scaling relation for MR gradient design: gradient coil inductance L scales as the square gradient efficiency (measured in T/m/A) and the fifth power of radius. The inclusion of "turns" as a unit in the dimensional matrix produces the result uniquely, greatly simplifying the analysis.
