Saturation is most clearly seen in the magnetization curve (also called BH curve or hysteresis curve) of a substance, as a bending to the right of the curve (see graph at right). As the H field increases, the B field approaches a maximum value asymptotically, the saturation level for the substance.
This produces the characteristic B-H curve; because the hysteresis indicates a memory effect of the magnetic material, the shape of the B-H curve depends on the history of changes in H. Alternatively, the hysteresis can be plotted as magnetization M in place of B, giving an M-H curve.
The maximum energy product is defined based on the magnetic hysteresis saturation loop (B-H curve), in the demagnetizing portion where the B and H fields are in opposition. It is defined as the maximal value of the product of B and H along this curve (actually, the maximum of the negative of the product, −BH, since they have opposing signs):
Equivalent definitions for coercivities in terms of the magnetization-vs-field (M-H) curve, for the same magnet. Coercivity in a ferromagnetic material is the intensity of the applied magnetic field (H field) required to demagnetize that material, after the magnetization of the sample has been driven to saturation by a strong field. This ...
where is the time average power loss per unit volume in mW per cubic centimeter, is frequency in kilohertz, and is the peak magnetic flux density; , , and , called the Steinmetz coefficients, are material parameters generally found empirically from the material's B-H hysteresis curve by curve fitting. In typical magnetic materials, the ...
Hysteresis loop Induction B as function of field strength H for H varying between H min and H max; for ferromagnetic material the B has different values for H going up and down, therefore a plot of the function forms a loop instead of a curve joining two points; for perminvar type materials, the loop is a "rectangle" (Domain Structure of Perminvar Having a Rectangular Hysteresis Loop, Williams ...
It is the ratio of magnetization M (magnetic moment per unit volume) to the applied magnetic field intensity H. This allows a simple classification, into two categories, of most materials' responses to an applied magnetic field: an alignment with the magnetic field, χ > 0 , called paramagnetism , or an alignment against the field, χ < 0 ...
In electromagnetism and materials science, the Jiles–Atherton model of magnetic hysteresis was introduced in 1984 by David Jiles and D. L. Atherton. [1] This is one of the most popular models of magnetic hysteresis.
