Tutorial 1
1. A ferromagnetic core is shown. Three sides of this core are of uniform width, while the
fourth side is somewhat thinner. The depth of the core (into the page) is 10 cm, and
the other dimensions are shown in the figure. There is a 200 turn coil wrapped around
the left side of the core. Assuming relative permeability of 2500, how much flux will be
produced by a 1A input current?

2. A toroidal ring has a circular cross section of 3 cm in diameter and a mean circumference
of 80 cm. The ring is uniformly wound with a coil of 600 turns.

(a) Estimate the current in the coil required to produce a flux of 0.5 mWb in the ring,
when
(i) The entire core region is replaced by air
(ii) A core made of solid cast steel of relative permeability 3000 is used.
(b) If a saw cut creates a 2 mm air gap in the ring, find approximately the air gap
flux produced by the current obtained in (a - ii). (Neglect magnetic leakage and
fringing)
(c) Find the current required in the above case to produce the same flux in the air gap
as in (a - ii).
3. A square magnetic core has a mean path length of 40 cm and a cross sectional area of
12 cm2 . There is a small gap of 0.05 cm in the structure of the otherwise whole core as
shown in below figure. A 400 turn coil of wire is wrapped around one leg of the core.
Use the B-H curve shown below and neglect magnetic leakage and fringing. Find:

(a) How much current is required to produce 1.68 mWb of flux in the air gap?
(b) What is the core0 s relative permeability at that current level?
(c) What is its reluctance?

4. In the magnetic circuit detailed in Figure with all dimensions in mm, calculate the
required current to be passed in the coil having 200 turns in order to establish a flux of
1.28 mWb in the air gap. Neglect fringing effect and leakage flux. The B-H curve of the
material is given below. Permeability of air may be taken as, µo = 4π x 10−7 H/m.

5. The magnetic circuit shown in below figure has two windings and two air gaps. The core
can be assumed to be of infinite permeability. The core dimensions are indicated in the
figure.

(a) Assuming coil 1 to be carrying a current I1 and the current in coil 2 to be zero,
calculate
(i) The magnetic flux density in each of the air gaps
(ii) The flux linkage of winding 1, and
(iii) The flux linkage of winding 2.
(b) Repeat part (a), assuming the current in winding 1 to be I1 and winding 2 to be I2

6. Figure shows a simplified rotor and stator for a dc motor. The mean path length of the
stator is 50 cm, and its cross sectional area is 12 cm2 . The mean path length of the rotor
is 5 cm, and its cross sectional area also may be assumed to be 12 cm2 . Each air gap
between the rotor and the stator is 0.05 cm wide, and the cross sectional area of each
air gap (including fringing) is 14 cm2 . The iron of the core has a relative permeability of
2000, and there are 200 turns of wire on the core. If the current in the wire is adjusted
to be 1 A, what will the resulting flux density in the air gaps be?

7. Figure below shows a composite magnetic circuit of varying cross sectional area. The
iron portion has the B-H characteristics as shown. Given N=400 turns, l1 = 4l2 =40 cm,
A1 = 2A2 =10 cm2 , lg = 2 mm, leakage flux, φl = 0.01 mWb. Calculate current required
to establish an air gap flux density of 0.6 T.
