  2. Solenoid (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solenoid_(engineering)

    Included in this category of solenoids are the uniquely designed magnetic circuits that effect analog positioning of the solenoid plunger or armature as a function of coil current. These solenoids, whether axial or rotary, employ a flux carrying geometry that both produces a high starting force (torque), and has a section that quickly begins to ...

  3. Solenoid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solenoid

    Examples of irregular solenoids (a) sparse solenoid, (b) varied-pitch solenoid, (c) non-cylindrical solenoid Within the category of finite solenoids, there are those that are sparsely wound with a single pitch, those that are sparsely wound with varying pitches (varied-pitch solenoid), and those with varying radii for different loops (non ...

  4. Electromagnetic induction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_induction

    A solenoid The longitudinal cross section of a solenoid with a constant electrical current running through it. The magnetic field lines are indicated, with their direction shown by arrows. The magnetic flux corresponds to the 'density of field lines'. The magnetic flux is thus densest in the middle of the solenoid, and weakest outside of it.

  5. Electric current - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_current

    Magnetic field is produced by an electric current in a solenoid. In an electromagnet a coil of wires behaves like a magnet when an electric current flows through it. When the current is switched off, the coil loses its magnetism immediately. Electric current produces a magnetic field. The magnetic field can be visualized as a pattern of ...

  6. Electromagnetic coil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_coil

    The magnetic field lines (green) of a current-carrying loop of wire pass through the center of the loop, concentrating the field there. An electromagnetic coil is an electrical conductor such as a wire in the shape of a coil (spiral or helix).

  7. Oersted - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oersted

    The H-field strength inside a long solenoid wound with 79.58 turns per meter of a wire carrying 1 A is approximately 1 oersted. The preceding statement is exactly correct if the solenoid considered is infinite in length with the current evenly distributed over its surface.

  8. Faraday's law of induction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faraday's_law_of_induction

    Alternating electric current flows through the solenoid on the left, producing a changing magnetic field. This field causes, by electromagnetic induction, an electric current to flow in the wire loop on the right. The most widespread version of Faraday's law states:

  9. Fleming's left-hand rule for motors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fleming's_left-hand_rule...

    Fleming's left-hand rule. Fleming's left-hand rule for electric motors is one of a pair of visual mnemonics, the other being Fleming's right-hand rule for generators. [1] [2] [3] They were originated by John Ambrose Fleming, in the late 19th century, as a simple way of working out the direction of motion in an electric motor, or the direction of electric current in an electric generator.
