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 the operating flux density of iron core transformer?

The operating flux density of an iron core transformer typically ranges from 1.2 to 1.8 Tesla, depending on the design and materials used. This flux density is crucial as it influences the transformer's efficiency, size, and heat generation. Higher flux densities can lead to core saturation, which affects performance and increases losses. Therefore, careful design is essential to optimize the flux density within these limits for effective operation.


How the losses will reduce if you keep the flux density in high level in power transformer?

The flux density is set at the most the core material can stand, which for standard laminated transformer iron is around 1 Weber per square metre. Based on that and the cross-section area of the core, the volts per turn figure is calculated for both the primary and the secondary winding. If the operating voltage stays constant, so will the flux density and the iron losses.


How do you improve the flux linkage between the primary and secondary windings in a transformer?

by using an iron core


How does Lenz's Law explain power loss in transformers?

It doesn't, really. The power loss in transformers is broken down into copper loss and iron loss. The copper loss comes from the resistance of the windings in the transformer and depends on the load current, while the iron loss in the magnetic core depends on the magnetic flux density and is constant if the supply voltage is constant.


How can hysteresis loss in magnetic material may be reduced?

Hysteresis losses depend on the type of metal used to manufacture the magnetic circuit of a machine. Most magnetic circuits are made from silicon steel. Generally speaking, there's not much you can do to reduce hysteresis losses as that has already been factored in by the machine's designer.

What is the function of the iron core in a transformer?

The iron core is there to provide a path for the magnetic flux to link both the primary and the secondary with as little flux as possible linking only one of the windings. The cross-section area of the core determines how much magnetic flux there is, because transformer iron has a fixed maximum flux density, usually 1 Weber per square metre. The amount of flux determines how many volts per turn there are on both windings.


What is leakage factor?

The Ratio of the total flux ( flux in iron path) to the useful flux (flux in air gap)


Why does adding an iron nail to a solenoid increase the strength of the magnetic field so dramatically?

Adding an iron nail to a solenoid increases the strength of the magnetic field dramatically because iron is a ferromagnetic material that easily magnetizes in the presence of a magnetic field. The iron nail enhances the magnetic flux density within the solenoid, resulting in a stronger overall magnetic field. This phenomenon is known as magnetic flux concentration.


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.


What is the density of galvanize iron?

The density of Galvanized Iron is 7850 kg/m3. Density of steel is equal to the density of galvanized iron


How does the density of iron vary with temperature?

Silver is more dense because silver is around 10.5g/cc, an iron around 7g/cc. silver atomic number 47, where as iron is 26. This means the nucleus will be much heavier, but also take up more space.


Does iron have low density?

Iron is a dense metal, not low density. Its density is around 7.87 g/cm³ at room temperature.


Which has a higher density iron or silicon?

Iron is more dense than silicon.


Which has the greater density a kilogram of feathers of kilogram of iron?

Iron has a greater density.


Is the density of copper more than iron?

Copper has a density of 8.9 g/cm3 while iron has a density of 7.9 g/cm3. Therefore copper is denser than iron.
