Tutorial 3

The document contains 6 practice problems related to electromagnetism and magnetic circuits. Problem 1 asks the student to determine the relative permeability of an iron ring given its dimensions and magnetic flux. Problem 2 asks for the number of ampere-turns required to produce a given flux in the air gap of a steel ring. Problem 3 asks the student to calculate the average permeability of sheet steel at different flux densities. Problems 4-6 present circuit diagrams and ask the student to calculate various magnetic properties including flux and required coil currents.

Tutorial # 3

1. A ferromagnetic ring with a mean circumference of 36 cm and a cross-sectional area of 3 cm2 is wound with 400 turns of wire. When the excitation current is 1.4 A, the flux is found to be 1.4 mWb. Determine the relative permeability of the iron.
(The solution is 2387)

2. A cast steel ring has a mean length of 30 cm and an air gap of 2 mm length. Find the number of ampere-turns required to produce a flux of 0.6 T in the air gap.
(The solution is 1084 At)

3. Find the average value of permeability (B/H) of sheet steel for the flux densities of B1 = 0.4T, B2 = 0.8 T, B3 = 1.2 T, and B4 = l.6 T.
(The solution is 3.08x10-3 H/m; 2.16x10-3 H/m; 1.67x10-3 H/m; 0.604x10-3 H/m)

4. A cast iron pipe has a 100-turn coil wound on it, as illustrated in Figure 1. The dimensions (in cm) are as indicated; (a) (b) For a coil current of 10 A, determine the flux set up in the material. If a cast steel pipe had been used, what coil current would he required to establish the same flux as part in (a)?

5. Calculate the magnetization curve for: (a) The circuit shown in Figure 2 and, (b) The same circuit with an air gap introduced as indicated by the dotted lines. The excitation coil has 200 turns, and the material is sheet steel. Plot the total flux as a function of excitation current for flux values of 4 to 12 mWb, in steps of 2 mWb. The dimensions (in cm) are as indicated;
