differences between linear & nonlinear magnets

differences between linear & nonlinear magnets

(OP)
Hello,

I would like to ask which are the main differences and with which criteria, except the economic and the field we want to have,we choose either linear or non-linear magnets? Typically this things are provided by the magnet companies without any explanation.


or is there any recommendation web sites explain these differences?

Thanks in advance

RE: differences between linear & nonlinear magnets

janas21:
I'm guessing you mean a material with a linear/nonlinear 2nd quadrant BH curve.

One does not choose whether to use a linear or non-linear magnet, that's how a particular material behaves.  As an engineer, you choose which material will perform the way you want (as long as economics allow).

This is a fundamental property of magnetic materials.
