  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.

    In free space, where ε = ε 0 and μ = μ 0 are constant everywhere, Maxwell's equations simplify considerably once the language of differential geometry and differential forms is used. The electric and magnetic fields are now jointly described by a 2-form F in a 4-dimensional spacetime manifold.

  4. Maxwell's equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maxwell's_equations

    For materials without polarization and magnetization, the constitutive relations are (by definition) [9]: 2 =, =, where ε 0 is the permittivity of free space and μ 0 the permeability of free space. Since there is no bound charge, the total and the free charge and current are equal.

    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 ...

  6. Darcy (unit) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darcy_(unit)

    A medium with a permeability of 1 darcy permits a flow of 1 cm 3 /s of a fluid with viscosity 1 cP (1 mPa·s) under a pressure gradient of 1 atm/cm acting across an area of 1 cm 2. Typical values of permeability range as high as 100,000 darcys for gravel, to less than 0.01 microdarcy for granite. Sand has a permeability of approximately 1 darcy ...

  7. Vacuum permeability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vacuum_permeability

    The vacuum magnetic permeability (variously vacuum permeability, permeability of free space, permeability of vacuum, magnetic constant) is the magnetic permeability in a classical vacuum. It is a physical constant , conventionally written as μ 0 (pronounced "mu nought" or "mu zero").

  8. Magnetic diffusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_diffusion

    The magnetic diffusion equation (also referred to as the induction equation) is = [] + where is the permeability of free space and is the electrical conductivity of the material, which is assumed to be constant.

  9. Permittivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permittivity

    c is the speed of light in free space, µ 0 is the vacuum permeability . The constants c and µ 0 were both defined in SI units to have exact numerical values until the 2019 revision of the SI .
