  2. Coercivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coercivity

    Coercivity in a ferromagnetic material is the intensity of the applied magnetic field (H field) required to demagnetize that material, after the magnetization of the sample has been driven to saturation by a strong field. This demagnetizing field is applied opposite to the original saturating field.

  3. Steinmetz's equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steinmetz's_equation

    where is the time average power loss per unit volume in mW per cubic centimeter, is frequency in kilohertz, and is the peak magnetic flux density; , , and , called the Steinmetz coefficients, are material parameters generally found empirically from the material's B-H hysteresis curve by curve fitting. In typical magnetic materials, the ...

  4. Magnetic hysteresis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_hysteresis

    The phenomenon of hysteresis in ferromagnetic materials is the result of two effects: rotation of magnetization and changes in size or number of magnetic domains.In general, the magnetization varies (in direction but not magnitude) across a magnet, but in sufficiently small magnets, it doesn't.

  5. Magnetic Thermodynamic Systems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_Thermodynamic_Systems

    Ferromagnetic systems are systems in which the magnetization doesn't vanish in the absence of an external magnetic field. Multiple thermodynamic models have been developed in order to model and explain the behavior of ferromagnets, including the Ising model.

  6. Curie's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curie's_law

    The magnetization is the negative derivative of the free energy with respect to the applied field, and so the magnetization per unit volume is = ⁡, where n is the number density of magnetic moments. [1]: 117 The formula above is known as the Langevin paramagnetic equation.

  7. Stoner–Wohlfarth model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stoner–Wohlfarth_model

    The result of the calculation is reproduced in Figure 4. Irreversible change (single arrow) occurs for 0.5 < |h| < 1, reversible change (double arrows) elsewhere. The normalized saturation remanence m rs and coercivity h c are indicated on the figure. The curve in the center is the initial magnetization curve. This simulates the behavior of the ...

  8. Ferromagnetism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferromagnetism

    Ferromagnetism is a property of certain materials (such as iron) that results in a significant, observable magnetic permeability, and in many cases, a significant magnetic coercivity, allowing the material to form a permanent magnet. Ferromagnetic materials are noticeably attracted to a magnet, which is a consequence of their substantial ...

  9. Magnetostriction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetostriction

    Internally, ferromagnetic materials have a structure that is divided into domains, each of which is a region of uniform magnetization.When a magnetic field is applied, the boundaries between the domains shift and the domains rotate; both of these effects cause a change in the material's dimensions.
