– B-H Relation
• The magnetic field intensity H produces a magnetic flux density B (lines
per cm2 ) everywhere it exists and these are related by B H
weber/m2 or B r 0 H tesla or wb/m2. or T
• Where is a characteristic of the medium and is called the permeabilty of
the medium or the abilty of a material for the flux to penetrate through it. It
is therefore the measure of the easy with which a material can be
magnetised.0 is the permeabilty of free space and is 4*10-7Henry/meter .
• r is the relative permeabilty of the medium.i.e the raio of the flux density
produced in material to the flux density produced in air or non magnetic
material.
• For free space r is unit.However for ferromagnetic materials such as iron
,cobalt, and nickel , the value of r varies from several hundred to several
thousand. For materials used in electrical machines , r varies from 2000 to
6000. A large value of r implies that a small current can produce a large
flux density in the machine.

Toroid magnetic circuit
• When current i flows through the coil of N turns , a magnetic flux is mostly
confined in the core material. If we consider the path at a radius of r. The
magnetic intensity on this path will be H and according to Ampere’s law

• If we assume that all the flux is confined in the toroid & that there is no magnetic

• Where A P is called the reluctance of the magnetic path and P is
called the permeance of the magnetic path.
• From the above equations it can be concluded that the magnetomotive force F is
the driving force in the magnetic circuit and it produces a flux against a
magnetic reluctance R. Therefore the magnetic circuit for a Toroid can be
represented by the circuit diagram below:

• Note =F/R has the form of ohm’s law for an electric circuitry current I=E/R.
A magnetic circuit is often looked upon as analogous to electric circuit, see the
table below.
• Analogy between magnetic circuit and electric circuit
Electric Circuit Magnetic Circuit
• Driving force Emf (E) Mmf (F)
• Produces Current (I) Flux ( )
• Limited by Resistance Reluctance(R =l/A)
• By analogy the laws of resistances in series and parallel also hold for
reluctances. In parallel magnetic circuits , the same mmf is applied to each of
the parallel paths and the total flux divides between the paths in inverse
proportion to their reluctances.
Example
• Calculate the magnetic force required to produce a flux of 0.015Wb
across an air gap 2.5mm long having an effective area of 200cm2 .
• Area of air gap =200 x 10-4 =0.02 m2
• flux density = B =/A =0.015/0.02 =0.75T
• magnetic field strength of the gap =H =B/ =0.75T/4 x10-7=
597000A/m
• Length of the gap=2.5mm =0.0025m
• magnetomotive force =F =Hl =597000A/m x0.0025 =1492At
Example
• Acoil of 200 turns is wound uniformly over a wooden ring having a mean
circumference of 600mm and a uniform crossectional area of 500mm2. If the
current through the coil is 4A, calculate:
• )the magnetic field strength (H),
• )the flux density (B), and
• )the total flux ()
• Solution
• )Mean circumference =l =0.6m F =NI =Hl H=NI/l
=200 x4/0.6 =1333A/m
• )Flux density : B =H =4 x10-7x 1333 =1675T,
• ) =BA but A =500mm2 =500 x10-6m2 =1675T x 500
x10-6m2 =0.8375Wb.
Magnetisation curve
• The graph of flux density B vs field intensity H of a magnetic material is called
the magnetisation curve or B-H curve.The increase of current will cause the
flux density to increase as thus.
• The flux density B increases almost linearly in the region of low values of the
magnetic intensity H(low current). However, at higher values of H, the change
of B is non linear. The magnetic material shows the effect of saturation. Also of
importance is that the reluctance of the path is dependent on the flux density.
One important difference between the electric circuit and magnetic circuit is
that energy must be supplied to maintain the flow of electric current in a circuit,
whereas for the magnetic flux , once it is set up it does not require any further
supply of energy.
• Note that to establish a certain level of flux density B* in the various magnetic
materials the values of current required are different
Magnetic cct with air gap
• In electric machines, the rotor is physically isolated from the stator by the air
gap. Such a magnetic circuit is known as a composite structure.
• Consider a simple composite structure below.
• The driving force in this magnetic circuit is the mmf, F=Ni, and the
corresponding reluctances can be given by RC lc A : RG l g
C C 0 Ag
• , and R R Ni H clc H g l g
Ni
C g
• where lc is the mean length of the core and lg is the length of the air gap and
the flux densities are Bc c A and Bg g A .
c g
• In the air gap the magnetic flux bulge outward and this is known as fringing of
flux. Fringing increases the cross-sectional area of the air gap. For small air
gaps the fringing effect can be neglected hence Ag =Ac and Bc=Bg. Leakage
flux is that flux which does not flow in the core see fig below
Fig & example
• Each line forms a closed path if limb L carries a current I then the magnetic flux
divides at P some flux passing through limb M and the remainder through limb
N henceL =M + N
• Second Law:In any closed magnetic circuit, the algebraic sum of the product of
the magnetic field strength and the length of each part of the circuit is equal to
the resultant magnetomotive force.
• Total magnetomotive force of the coil is =F = H l L l +H m L m.
• Where H l is the magnetic field strength required for limb L and L l is the
length of the circuit from Q to P and if H m and L m. are the corresponding
values for limb M and H n and L n are the corresponding values for limb N
extending from P via N to Q then total mmf of the coil =F = H l L l +H n L n.
Example
Inductance
• If the current through a coil changes, an emf is induced. This induced emf is
proportional to the rate of change of the current.That is:e di dt , or L di dt
• The constant of proportionality is referred to as the coefficient of inductance, L.
Its unit is the henry (H). The emf is negative due to Lenz’s law.
• Inductance is the property of a coil due to which it opposes any change of current
or flux through it. That is e L di dt , or e N d L di N d or
dt dt dt
L=Nd/di.
• On average , L=N/I. This give another defination of inductance as the number of

the core. The integral term represents the shaded area shown below.
• The energy transfer over one cycle is
Vcore x Area of the B-H loop =Vcore xWh
• Power loss in the core due to hysteresis
effect is Ph=Enegy /Time= Vcore xWh x f.
where f is the variation of the current I
Hysteresis Loss Cont’d
• It is difficult to evaluate the area of the hysteresis loop hence the
use of Charles Steinmetz formular.
• Charles Steinmetz of General Electric Company performed
experiments and found that for magnetic materials used in electric
machines the hysteresis power loss is Ph K h Bmax n
f Where Kh is
a constant whose value depends on the ferromagnetic material and
the volume of the core. Bmax is the maximum flux density, n varies
in the range 1.5 to 2.5. The hysteresis loss for a complete cycle

Hysteresis Loss Cont’d
Also the power loss can be given as Ph KVfBmax where V=

•
volume of the core, K=a constant whose value depends upon the
ferromagnetic material; f and Bmax as indicated above.
• If the hysteresis loop is plotted to scale of : 1cm =
amps/meter(H) along the horizontal axis and 1cm = tesla(B)
along the vertical axis and A represents the area of the loop in
square centimeters, then :
– Hysteresis loss/cycle = A (joules.m-3)
• Eg 1:The area of a hysteresis loop obtained from a ferromagnetic
specimen is 12,5cm2. The scales used are horizontal axis,
1cm=500A/m; vertical axis 1cm =0.2T. Determine :
• )the hysteresis loss per m3 per cycle and
• )the hysteresis power loss per m3at a frequency of 50Hz
example
• Solution a)hysteresis loss per cycle = A (joules.m-3) = 12.5*
500*0.2 =1250Jm-3 b)At 50Hz frequency , hysteresis power loss
=1250 *50Hz =62500W m-3 =power.
• Example 2
• If in the above problem the maximum flux density is 1.5T at a
frequency of 50Hz, determine the hysteresis loss per m3 for a
maximum flux density of 1.1T and a frequency of 25Hz .Assume

Eddy Current Loss
• Eddy currents can be reduced by laminating the core i.e splitting it
into thin layers of sheets with thin layers of insulating material(
vanish).This insulation represents a high resistance and this reduces
induced circulating currents. Also a high resistivity core material
can be used. Addition of a few % of silicon to iron will increase
resistivity significantly.
• Remember:

• Core Loss R

• The hysteresis loss and the eddy current loss are lumped together as
core loss of the coil-core assembly:-
PC Ph Pe
Core Loss Continued
• If for a particular inductor or transformer, the core flux density is
mantained constant, then Ph =k1f where k1=KVBn and Pe=k2f 2
where k2 =KeB2.
P
• Thus the total core loss is given by : PC k1 f k 2 f 2 fc k1 k 2 f
• which is a straight line equation. If the total core loss is measured
over a range of frequencies then k1 and k2 may be determined
from the graph of Pc/f vs f. Hence the hysteresis loss Ph=k1f and
the eddy current loss Pe=k2f 2 can be determined at a given
frequency.
•
Example
• The total core loss of a ferromagnetic cored transformer winding is
measured at different frequencies and the results obtained are
given in the table below:
• Total core loss Pc(watts) 45 105 190 305
• Frequency f (hertz) 30 50 70 90
• Determine the separate values of the hysteresis and eddy current
losses at frequencies of a) 50Hz and b)60Hz
• Solution: From a plot of a graph of Pc/f vs f we obtain k1=0.5
and k2=0.036 Hence hysteresis loss =Ph= 0.5 *50 =25 W and
eddy current loss Pe =k2f2 =0.032 *50 *50=80W. And at a
frequency of 60Hz, Ph= 0.5 *60 =30 W and Pe =k2f 2=0.032 *60
*60=115.2W
SINUSOIDAL EXCITATION
• In ac electric machines as well as in many other applications, the voltages and
fluxes vary sinusoidally with time. See fig below
• If we assume the core flux (t) varies sinusoidal with time then (t ) max Sin
