INTRODUCITON TO ELECTRICAL MACHINE ASSIGNMENT -I

1. For the magnetic circuit shown below, the relative permeability of the ferromagnetic
material of the core is 1300. Neglect leakage and fringing. All dimensions are in cm,
and the magnetic material has a square Cross-sectional area. Determine the air gap flux
and the magnetic field intensity in the air gap.
(a) Draw the equivalent magnetic circuit
(b) Determine the air gap flux, air gap flux density and the magnetic field intensity in
the air gap.
Permeability of air may be taken as, (𝜇0 = 4𝜋𝑥10−7 )

2. It is desired to achieve a time varying magnetic flux density in the air gap of the
magnetic circuit of Fig.2(a) of the form
𝐵𝑔 = 𝐵0 + 𝐵1 sin 𝜔𝑡
Where 𝐵0 = 0.5 T and 𝐵1 =0.25 T. The dc field 𝐵0 is to be created by a NdFeB permanent
magnet, whereas the time varying field is to be created by a time varying current.
Assume the permeability of the iron is infinite and neglect the fringing effect.
