Magnetic flux density is measured by q meter or ac voltmeter or hall probe or energy meter?

Hall Probe. When the Hall Probe is held so that the magnetic field lines are passing at right angles through the sensor of the probe, the meter gives a reading of the value of magnetic flux density (B).


What is magnetic relunctance?

Reluctance is the opposition offered by a magnetic circuit to the formation of magnetic flux. It is equivalent to resistance in an electric circuit.Reluctance is the ratio of a magnetic circuit's magnetomotive force (measured in amperes) to its magnetic flux(measured in webers, pronounced 'vay-bers'). So, reluctance is measured in amperes per weber (which is often 'spoken' as 'ampere-turns per weber'). This is equivalent, in an electric circuit, to the ratio: electomotive force to electric current.


German scientist who gave his name to the cgs unit of magnetic flux density?

Karl Friedrich Gauss is the German mathematician who is credited with developing a number theory that is used in math in relation to electricity and astronomy. The number unit is referred to as the cgs unit of magnetic flux density.


Why soft iron is placed in moving coil galvanometer?

1. to intensify the magnetic field by reducing the length of airgap across which the magnetic flux has to pass; 2. to give a radial magnetic flux of uniform density, thereby enabling the scale to be uniformly divided.


Why is residual magnetism is necessary?

'Residual magnetism' isn't something that's 'necessary'; rather, it's something you're stuck with, whether you want it or not! Residual magnetism is due to a phenomenon called 'hysteresis', which is derived from a Greek word, meaning 'to lag'.A bit of background first. If we were to wind an insulated coil around the sample of ferromagnetic material, and pass a current through that wire, we would create and apply magnetic field strength (symbol: H), expressed in amperes per metre, to that sample. This results in a magnetic field being set up within the sample, the intensity of which we call its flux density (symbol: B) expressed in teslas.If we gradually increase the magnetic field strength, the resulting flux density would also increase until a point, called 'saturation' is reached -at this point any further increase in magnetic field strength will NOT increase the flux density. If we were to graph this behaviour, then the result would look something like an elongated 'S', rather than a straight line. This graph is known as a B-H curve.Now, if we were to reduce the magnetic field strength to zero, the magnetic flux density would also reduce towards zero (following a slightly-different curve) but would not reach zero when the magnetic field strength reaches zero -in other words, when we remove the magnetic field strength, the sample 'retains' some flux density -and we call this 'residual magnetism' or, more accurately, 'residual flux density' or 'remanance'. This is what we mean by 'hysteresis' -i.e. changes in magnetic flux density lag behind changes in magnetic field strength.To remove this residual flux density, we would actually need to reverse the direction of the magnetic field strength (by reversing the direction of the current through the coil) until the flux density falls to zero.Different ferromagnetic materials have different values of residual flux density. For example materials that make good permanent magnets have very high values of residual flux density while others, such as metals used to make transformers, electromagnets, etc., have very low values of residual flux density.To summarise, residual magnetism is something that occurs naturally and the amount of residual magnetism depends on the type of magnetic material involved. It's not a matter of being 'necessary', it's simply a characteristic of ALL magnetic materials.

How iron area is decreased when flux density is more?

Your question is unclear, but flux density is a function of the cross-sectional area of the magnetic circuit in which the magnetic flux is established.Flux density (symbol: B) is defined as 'the flux per unit area'. If the flux is measured in webers (pronounced 'vay-bers') and the cross-sectional area is measured in square metres, then the flux density is measured in teslas(symbol: T) which is a special name given to a weber per square metre.


What is Magnetic flux density unit?

"Magnetic flux density" is also known as the magnetic field,The SI unit for this is the Tesla, written as T.CommentMagnetic flux density is not "also known as the magnetic field". It describes the intensity of a magnetic field.


What is flux density?

Something that which produces a magnetic fieldThe magnetic field that surrounds a magnet is made up of magnetic flux (symbol, the Greek letter 'phi'), usually represented as lines in field diagrams. The SI unit for measuring magnetic flux is the weber (pronounced 'vay-ber'). The intensity of this flux (the closeness of the lines in diagrams) is called the flux density (symbol: B). Flux density is greatest in the areas nearest a magnet's poles. Flux Density is defined as 'flux per unit area', and is measured in webers per square metre which, in SI, is given the special name, the 'tesla'.

What is the limit for magnetic field developed for a DC machine?

The magnetic field used in machines is quantified in terms of its flux density (symbol: B), expressed in teslas. The flux density is established by the magnetic field strength (H), expressed in amperes per metre, set up in the field windings.As the magnetic field strength increases, the flux density increases until it reaches saturation. This is the point when the magnetic domains within the magnetic circuit are all aligned. At this point, any further increase in magnetic field strength will fail to increase the flux density.So saturation of the magnetic circuit limits the flux density of the field.


How do you calculate the magnetic dipole moment of a bar magnet?

The strength of a magnet can be determined by measuring its flux density (B) which is expressed in teslas. The flux density will vary according to where relative to the magnet it is being measured. The instrument for doing this is a flux-density meter (which was called a 'gaussmeter' - 'gauss' being an obsolete unit of measurement for flux density, from the cgsA metric system).
