Abstract
In this work, the modified genetic algorithm has been applied to solve the Helmholtz coil problem. The task of the algorithm was to determine the radius of the coils and the distance between them, which would assure that a priori assumed level of non-homogeneity of magnetic field is maintained. In the implemented genetic algorithm, the ternary system of representation has been used. Based on the results of performed experiments, the accuracy, efficiency and usefulness of the proposed algorithm has been assessed.
