TUTORIAL-1
1) The long solenoid coil shown in Fig. has 250 turns. As its length is much greater than its
diameter, the field inside the coil may be considered uniform. Neglect the field outside.
a) Determine the field intensity (H) and flux density (B) inside the solenoid (i = 100 A).
b) Determine the inductance of the solenoid coil.
2) The magnetic circuit of Fig. provides flux in the two air gaps. The coils (N1 =700, N2 =200)
are connected in series and carry a current of 0.5 ampere. Neglect leakage flux, reluctance of
the iron (i.e., infinite permeability), and fringing at the air gaps. Determine the flux and flux
density in the air gaps.
3) A coil wound on a magnetic core is excited by the following voltage sources.
a) 100 V, 50 Hz.
b) 110 V, 60 Hz.
Compare the hysteresis losses and eddy current losses with these two different sources. For
hysteresis loss, consider n = 2.
4) A toroidal core has a rectangular cross section as shown in Fig.a. It is wound with a coil
having 100 turns. The B−H characteristic of the core may be represented by the linearized
magnetization curve of Fig.b.
a) Determine the inductance of the coil if the flux density in any part of the core is below 1.0
Wb/m2.
b) Determine the maximum value of the current for the condition of part (a).
c) Determine the minimum value of the current for which the complete core has a flux density of
1.0 Wb/m2 or greater.
5) Two coils are wound on a toroidal core as shown in Fig. The core is made of silicon sheet
steel and has a square cross section. The coil currents are i1 =0:28 A and i2 =0:56 A.
a) Determine the flux density at the mean radius of the core.
b) Assuming constant flux density (same as at the mean radius) over the cross section of the
core, determine the flux in the core.
c) Determine the relative permeability, μr, of the core.
