MAGNETIC CIRCUITS
1. In the magnetic circuit detailed in Figure 1(a) with all
dimensions in mm, calculate the required current to be
passed in the coil having 200 turns in order to establish a flux
of 1.28 mWb in the air gap. Neglect fringing effect and
leakage flux. The B-H curve of the material is given in Figure
1(b). Permeability of air may be taken as μ0 = 4π × 10-7 H/m.

2. Find the value of I required to establish a magnetic flux of φ =
0.75×10-4 Wb in the series magnetic circuit shown below.
Calculate the force exerted on the armature (moving part) when
the flux is established. The relative permeability for the steel is
μr = 1424.
Solution:
• The device can be analysed by its magnetic circuit equivalent
and its electric circuit analogy as shown below.

• From the Gauss law (analogy to KCL in electric circuit), the
flux density for each section is
Energy stored in the air gap, W = Volume of air gap, Vg ×
magnetic energy density, W0
3. Determine the value of I required to establish a magnetic flux of
φ = 1.54 ×10-4 Wb in the section of the core indicated in the
figure below. The relative permeability for the steel in regions
bcde, be, and efab are μ2 = 4972, μ1 = 4821, and μT = 2426,
respectively.
Solution:
Applying Ampère’s circuital law around loop 2 of the figure:
For loop 1, apply Gauss law (analogy to KCL in electric circuit)
