In this case it isn't reasoning, that is just what the equations say. E.j is 0 anywhere E or j is 0. That is simply what E.j means. If you have a problem with it you need to take it up with Maxwell and Lorentz, they aren't my equations.cabraham said:I'll find the textbook. But here is a flaw in your reasoning.
If you believe that the energy can transfer from a point in the air gap directly to the wire without passing through the intervening space then do you also believe that a field a light year away can transfer energy to the wire now?cabraham said:Remember that the energy in a motor that transfers from stator to rotor is chiefly in the air gap. If the energy was all confined to the wire, how does it transfer? The stator L has a flux which is in the stator iron core, links to the rotor iron core via the air gap. This flux is energy, LI2/2. This energy does not appear in the E.J product inside the wire.
Please do so.cabraham said:I will search for the text & post.
