The magnetic field lines (green) of a current-carrying loop of wire pass through the center of the loop, concentrating the field there. An electromagnetic coil is an electrical conductor such as a wire in the shape of a coil (spiral or helix).
The magnetic field (marked B, indicated by red field lines) around wire carrying an electric current (marked I) Compass and wire apparatus showing Ørsted's experiment (video [1]) In electromagnetism , Ørsted's law , also spelled Oersted's law , is the physical law stating that an electric current induces a magnetic field .
The magnetic field lines of a current-carrying loop of wire pass through the center of the loop, concentrating the field there The magnetic field generated by passing a current through a coil. An electric current flowing in a wire creates a magnetic field around the wire, due to Ampere's law (see drawing of wire with magnetic field).
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.
Two current-carrying wires attract each other magnetically: The bottom wire has current I 1, which creates magnetic field B 1. The top wire carries a current I 2 through the magnetic field B 1, so (by the Lorentz force) the wire experiences a force F 12. (Not shown is the simultaneous process where the top wire makes a magnetic field which ...
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 has a power-supply input separate from the current loop. Panel mount displays and chart recorders are commonly termed "indicator devices" or "process monitors".
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.
In classical electromagnetism, Ampère's circuital law (not to be confused with Ampère's force law) [1] relates the circulation of a magnetic field around a closed loop to the electric current passing through the loop. James Clerk Maxwell derived it using hydrodynamics in his 1861 published paper "On Physical Lines of Force". [2]
