3. Magnetics<br />
What is <strong>magnetic</strong>s?<br />
A <strong>magnetic</strong> field is a field <strong>of</strong> force produced by moving <strong>electric</strong> charges, by <strong>electric</strong> <strong>fields</strong><br />
that vary in time, <strong>and</strong> by the 'intrinsic' <strong>magnetic</strong> field <strong>of</strong> elementary particles associated with<br />
the spin <strong>of</strong> the particle. There are two separate but closely related <strong>fields</strong> to which the name<br />
'<strong>magnetic</strong> field' can refer: a <strong>magnetic</strong> B field <strong>and</strong> a <strong>magnetic</strong> H field. The <strong>magnetic</strong> field at<br />
any given point is specified by both a direction <strong>and</strong> a magnitude (or strength); as such it is a<br />
vector field. The <strong>magnetic</strong> field is most commonly defined in terms <strong>of</strong> the Lorentz force it<br />
exerts on moving <strong>electric</strong> charges. 11<br />
3.1 No air gap<br />
Assume we have a square coil built up by 50 turns <strong>of</strong> copper wire (16 AWG). The length <strong>of</strong><br />
its side is 6cm. And through the wire flows a 60A current.<br />
Figure 3-1 Coil wrapped up with copper wire<br />
We will draw the field pr<strong>of</strong>ile <strong>of</strong> its <strong>magnetic</strong> flux density <strong>and</strong> also the B- <strong>and</strong> H-field plots.<br />
