Question

What is Iron's Permeability?


Open in App
Solution

  1. Magnetic permeability is defined as the property exhibited by the material where the material allows the magnetic line of force to pass through it.
  2. Permeability is determined in the lab by passing a fluid with a known viscosity through a core sample with specified dimensions at a set pace and measuring the pressure drop through all fundamentals, or by allowing the fluid to flow at a defined pressure differential and determining the resultant flow rate.
  3. The equation of the permeability can be written as:μ=BH, where H refers to the measure of the magnetic field, μ is the Permeability, B is the magnetic strength
  4. Although iron is commonly regarded to be the strongest core for an electromagnet, it is not the only magnetic material available, and alloys such as steel are expected to become increasingly popular in the near future.
  5. The iron's permeability is 6.3×10-3H/m
