  2. Magnetic reluctance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_reluctance

    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.

  3. 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.

  4. Magnetic circuit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_circuit

    Magnetic reluctance, or magnetic resistance, is analogous to resistance in an electrical circuit (although it does not dissipate magnetic energy). In likeness to the way an electric field causes an electric current to follow the path of least resistance , a magnetic field causes magnetic flux to follow the path of least magnetic reluctance.

  5. 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.

  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 complex reluctance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_complex_reluctance

    Electromagnetism. 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.

  8. 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 ...

  9. Magnetism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetism

    Magnetism is the class of physical attributes that occur through a magnetic field, which allows objects to attract or repel each other. Because both electric currents and magnetic moments of elementary particles give rise to a magnetic field, magnetism is one of two aspects of electromagnetism. The most familiar effects occur in ferromagnetic ...
