  2. Leakage inductance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leakage_inductance

    Without the leakage inductance, the negative resistance characteristic of these gas discharge lamps would cause them to conduct excessive current and be destroyed. Transformers with variable leakage inductance are used to control the current in arc welding sets. In these cases, the leakage inductance limits the current flow to the desired ...

  3. Inductance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inductance

    Mutual inductance occurs when the change in current in one inductor induces a voltage in another nearby inductor. It is important as the mechanism by which transformers work, but it can also cause unwanted coupling between conductors in a circuit. The mutual inductance, , is also a measure of the coupling between two inductors.

  4. Electromagnetic induction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_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.

  5. Permeability (electromagnetism) - Wikipedia

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

    the magnetizing field H which is generated around electric currents and displacement currents, and also emanates from the poles of magnets. The SI units of H are amperes per meter. the magnetic flux density B which acts back on the electrical domain, by curving the motion of charges and causing electromagnetic induction.

  6. Faraday's law of induction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faraday's_law_of_induction

    Find the sign of ΔΦ B, the change in flux. Determine the initial and final fluxes (whose difference is ΔΦ B) with respect to the normal n, as indicated by the stretched thumb. If the change in flux, ΔΦ B, is positive, the curved fingers show the direction of the electromotive force (yellow arrowheads).

  7. Magnetic circuit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_circuit

    Magnetic field (green) induced by a current-carrying wire winding (red) in a magnetic circuit consisting of an iron core C forming a closed loop with two air gaps G in it. In an analogy to an electric circuit, the winding acts analogously to an electric battery, providing the magnetizing field , the core pieces act like wires, and the gaps G act like resistors.

  8. Inductive coupling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inductive_coupling

    k is the coupling coefficient, Le1 and Le2 is the leakage inductance, M1 (M2) is the mutual inductance. An inductively coupled transponder consists of a solid state transceiver chip connected to a large coil that functions as an antenna. When brought within the oscillating magnetic field of a reader unit, the transceiver is powered up by energy ...

  9. Flux linkage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flux_linkage

    Thus, for a typical inductance (a coil of conducting wire), the flux linkage is equivalent to magnetic flux, which is the total magnetic field passing through the surface (i.e., normal to that surface) formed by a closed conducting loop coil and is determined by the number of turns in the coil and the magnetic field, i.e.,
