The circle diagram (also known as Heyland diagram or Heyland circle) is the graphical representation of the performance of the electrical machine [1] [2] [3] drawn in terms of the locus of the machine's input voltage and current. [4] It was first conceived by Alexander Heyland in 1894 and Bernhard Arthur Behrend in 1895.
The pressure transmitter modulates the current on the loop to send the signal to the strip chart recorder, but does not in itself supply power to the loop and so is passive. Another loop may contain two passive chart recorders, a passive pressure transmitter, and a 24 V battery (the battery is the active device). Note that a 4-wire instrument ...
A more general technique, called loop analysis (with the corresponding network variables called loop currents) can be applied to any circuit, planar or not [citation needed]. Mesh analysis and loop analysis both make systematic use of Kirchhoff’s voltage law to arrive at a set of equations guaranteed to be solvable if the circuit has a ...
In a coil of multiple turns of wire the magnetic field of the turns adds in the center of the coil, creating a strong field. This drawing shows a cross section through the center of the coil. The crosses are wires in which current is moving into the page; the dots are wires in which current is emerging from the page.
Diagram of D'Arsonval/Weston type galvanometer. As the current flows from + through the coil (the orange part) to −, a magnetic field is generated in the coil. This field is counteracted by the permanent magnet and forces the coil to twist, moving the pointer, in relation to the field's strength caused by the flow of current.

The magnitude of the current in a given loop is proportional to the strength of the magnetic field, the area of the loop, and the rate of change of flux, and inversely proportional to the resistivity of the material. When graphed, these circular currents within a piece of metal look vaguely like eddies or whirlpools in a liquid.
Magnetic field (green) created by a current-carrying winding (red) in a typical magnetic core transformer or inductor, with the iron core C forming a closed loop, possibly with air gaps G in it. The drawing shows a section through the core. The purpose of the core is to provide a closed high permeability path for the magnetic field lines.
