Example
• A coil, uniformly wound over a mild steel ring, produces a magnetic field strength of 3000 A/m when energised.
Using an appropriate curve :•
• i) Flux density
• ii) Relative permeability of mild steel under the stated conditions •

Example
A mild steel ring has a cross- sectional area of 400 mm2
and mean circumference of 300 mm. If a coil of 250 turns is wound uniformly over the ring, calculate:
i) Flux density in the ring assuming a total flux of 600 μWb
ii) Reluctance of the ring assuming μr
iii) Current to produce the required flux density

Example
• i) From Φ = B x area. Flux density B = 600 x 10-6 / 400 x 10-6 = 1.5 Tesla
