I'm working on evaluating software to analyze eddy current coils (wound like chokes). Many of them do not account for the self inductance proximity effect that wound coils experience with A-C signals. Skin effect is not a concern at my frequency but proxmity effect is, I've measured it and...
All,
I've read a number of threads that indicate 1018 steel annealed and 430 stainless are commonly used for solonoids.
My design problem is to pick the best material for a DC electromagnet. Would sombody please recommend a material, either one of the two I mentioned or something different...
Would someone please enlighten me on how a B-H curve is generated for an unknown material? Also, for the relative permeability number that one sometimes finds published. Thank you.
Folks,
I'm just looking for a few opinions (as I believe endorsements are not appropriate here)for some modeling software. My problem is designing an A.C. inductive coil sensor that gets loaded by nearby metals. I'd like to model the complex impedance response and determine magnetic shielding...
