  2. Saturation (magnetic) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saturation_(magnetic)

    When the primary current exceeds a certain value, the core is pushed into its saturation region, limiting further increases in secondary current. In a more sophisticated application, saturable core inductors and magnetic amplifiers use a DC current through a separate winding to control an inductor's impedance. Varying the current in the control ...

  3. Magnetic domain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_domain

    Magnetic domain theory was developed by French physicist Pierre-Ernest Weiss [1] who, in 1906, suggested existence of magnetic domains in ferromagnets. [2] He suggested that large number of atomic magnetic moments (typically 10 12-10 18) [citation needed] were aligned parallel. The direction of alignment varies from domain to domain in a more ...

  4. Magnetic hysteresis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_hysteresis

    Magnetic hysteresis can be characterized in various ways. In general, the magnetic material is placed in a varying applied H field, as induced by an electromagnet, and the resulting magnetic flux density (B field) is measured, generally by the inductive electromotive force introduced on a pickup coil nearby the sample.

  5. Hysteresis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hysteresis

    This curve increases rapidly at first and then approaches an asymptote called magnetic saturation. If the magnetic field is now reduced monotonically, M follows a different curve. At zero field strength, the magnetization is offset from the origin by an amount called the remanence. If the H-M relationship is plotted for all strengths of applied ...

  6. Magnetostriction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetostriction

    Magnetostriction is a property of magnetic materials that causes them to change their shape or dimensions during the process of magnetization.The variation of materials' magnetization due to the applied magnetic field changes the magnetostrictive strain until reaching its saturation value, λ.

  7. Barkhausen effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barkhausen_effect

    The Wiegand effect is a macroscopic extension of the Barkhausen effect, [2] as the special treatment of the Wiegand wire causes the wire to act macroscopically as a single large magnetic domain. The numerous small high-coercivity domains in the Wiegand wire outer shell switch in an avalanche, generating the Wiegand effect's rapid magnetic field ...

  8. Ferromagnetic material properties - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferromagnetic_material...

    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 ...

  9. Curie's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curie's_law

    > is the (volume) magnetic susceptibility, is the magnitude of the resulting magnetization (A/m), is the magnitude of the applied magnetic field (A/m), is absolute temperature , is a material-specific Curie constant (K).
