  2. Permeability (electromagnetism) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permeability...

    In SI units, permeability is measured in henries per meter (H/m), or equivalently in newtons per ampere squared (N/A 2). The permeability constant μ 0, also known as the magnetic constant or the permeability of free space, is the proportionality between magnetic induction and magnetizing force when forming a magnetic field in a classical vacuum.

  3. Permalloy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permalloy

    Strip of permalloy. Permalloy is a nickel–iron magnetic alloy, with about 80% nickel and 20% iron content.Invented in 1914 by physicist Gustav Elmen at Bell Telephone Laboratories, [1] it is notable for its very high magnetic permeability, which makes it useful as a magnetic core material in electrical and electronic equipment, and also in magnetic shielding to block magnetic fields.

  4. Permeance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permeance

    In electromagnetism, permeance is the inverse of reluctance.In a magnetic circuit, permeance is a measure of the quantity of magnetic flux for a number of current-turns. A magnetic circuit almost acts as though the flux is conducted, therefore permeance is larger for large cross-sections of a material and smaller for smaller cross section lengths.

  5. Electrical steel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_steel

    The typical relative permeability (μ r) of electrical steel is 4,000-38,000 times that of vacuum, compared to 1.003-1800 for stainless steel. [ 15 ] [ 16 ] [ 17 ] The magnetic properties of electrical steel are dependent on heat treatment , as increasing the average crystal size decreases the hysteresis loss.

  6. Magnetic core - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_core

    A magnetic core is a piece of magnetic material with a high magnetic permeability used to confine and guide magnetic fields in electrical, electromechanical and magnetic devices such as electromagnets, transformers, electric motors, generators, inductors, loudspeakers, magnetic recording heads, and magnetic assemblies.

  7. Ferrite core - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferrite_core

    In electronics, a ferrite core is a type of magnetic core made of ferrite on which the windings of electric transformers and other wound components such as inductors are formed. It is used for its properties of high magnetic permeability coupled with low electrical conductivity (which helps prevent eddy currents ).

  8. Impedance of free space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impedance_of_free_space

    μ 0 ≈ 12.566 × 10 −7 H/m is the magnetic constant, also known as the permeability of free space, ε 0 ≈ 8.854 × 10 −12 F/m is the electric constant, also known as the permittivity of free space, c is the speed of light in free space, [9] [10] The reciprocal of Z 0 is sometimes referred to as the admittance of free space and ...

  9. Separator (electricity) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Separator_(electricity)

    Diagram of a battery with a polymer separator. A separator is a permeable membrane placed between a battery's anode and cathode.The main function of a separator is to keep the two electrodes apart to prevent electrical short circuits while also allowing the transport of ionic charge carriers that are needed to close the circuit during the passage of current in an electrochemical cell.
