  2. Magnetic reluctance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_reluctance

    v. t. e. Magnetic reluctance, or magnetic resistance, is a concept used in the analysis of magnetic circuits. It is defined as the ratio of magnetomotive force (mmf) to magnetic flux. It represents the opposition to magnetic flux, and depends on the geometry and composition of an object. Magnetic reluctance in a magnetic circuit is analogous to ...

  3. Magnetomotive force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetomotive_force

    t. e. In physics, the magnetomotive force (abbreviated mmf or MMF, symbol ) is a quantity appearing in the equation for the magnetic flux in a magnetic circuit, Hopkinson's law. [1] It is the property of certain substances or phenomena that give rise to magnetic fields: where Φ is the magnetic flux and is the reluctance of the circuit.

  4. Permeability (electromagnetism) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permeability...

    Scientists. v. t. e. In electromagnetism, permeability is the measure of magnetization produced in a material in response to an applied magnetic field. Permeability is typically represented by the (italicized) Greek letter μ. It is the ratio of the magnetic induction to the magnetizing field as a function of the field in a material.

  5. Magnetic complex reluctance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_complex_reluctance

    Magnetic complex reluctance ( SI Unit: H −1) is a measurement of a passive magnetic circuit (or element within that circuit) dependent on sinusoidal magnetomotive force ( SI Unit: At · Wb −1) and sinusoidal magnetic flux ( SI Unit: T · m 2 ), and this is determined by deriving the ratio of their complex effective amplitudes. [Ref. 1-3]

  6. Permeance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permeance

    In electromagnetism, permeance is the inverse of reluctance. In a magnetic circuit, permeance is a measure of the quantity of magnetic flux for a number of current-turns. A magnetic circuit almost acts as though the flux is conducted, therefore permeance is larger for large cross-sections of a material and smaller for smaller cross section ...

  7. Magnetic field - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_field

    The shape of the magnetic fields of a permanent magnet and an electromagnet are revealed by the orientation of iron filings sprinkled on pieces of paper. A magnetic field (sometimes called B-field[1]) is a physical field that describes the magnetic influence on moving electric charges, electric currents, [2]: ch1 [3] and magnetic materials.

  8. Magnetic circuit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_circuit

    Magnetic field (green) induced by a current-carrying wire winding (red) in a magnetic circuit consisting of an iron core C forming a closed loop with two air gaps G in it. In an analogy to an electric circuit, the winding acts analogously to an electric battery, providing the magnetizing field , the core pieces act like wires, and the gaps G act like resistors.

  9. Gyrator–capacitor model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gyrator–capacitor_model

    R is the reluctance of the physical magnetic circuit. The gyrator–capacitor model [1] - sometimes also the capacitor-permeance model [2] - is a lumped-element model for magnetic circuits, that can be used in place of the more common resistance–reluctance model. The model makes permeance elements analogous to electrical capacitance ( see ...
