Electromagnetic coil Definition and 17 Threads

If I drop the magnet into the electromagnetic coil, is magnetic flux density changed or cross sectional area changed during its falling? Actually I dropped a neodymium magnet into the coil and there was the voltage induced but I don't know what's the factor that induce the EMF in this case. Also...

I need a method to accelerate a ball bearing down a pair of wire tracks, and to generate a consistent amount of force on every activation. Please critique my tentative design: I want to use an inductive coil activated by a proximity sensor to generate a transient EM field to accelerate the ball...

Hello all, I'm playing around with a PIC + LCC Tank to send - at a 5MHz frecuency - some numeric data via BPSK. The receiver is a loop antenna placed in the ground. The sender antena (L) is a ferrite core solenoid (N=10). As having a larger core, or increasing the Number of coils around the...

Hi. I am making a 3D Ansys Maxwell project to design DC electromagnet. My model as in attached pictures. I have couple of questions. 1- How important the width value of sheet of coil terminal? Altough I did not change number of conductors and current of coil, changing the width of sheet of the...

Summary:: Is the magnetic flux density B constant? Is the magnetic flux constant? I am working on a project design for Uni and I am stuck. In a magnetic circuit is either the magnetic flux or the magnetic flux density B constant? This magnetic circuit has all different cross section areas and...

I'm not really sure if this is even scientific but while calculating how much energy is stored in electromagnetic coils and capacitors, pretty much the same formula is used: For electromagnetic coils it's U=0.5LI2 For capacitors it's U=0.5CV2 Why I think they're the same is that in a sense L to...

Good day I've been the task of designing an electromagnet to remove ferrous material from ore mixture. I've calculated the flux density require to remove the particle from underneath a burden depth of 400mm; which is 792.7177 Gauss. (Force index is: 1.5710*10^6 G^2/m) However what I've been...

I have these two very large (ferrous core) coils, They are basically identical, each 200mm long and have a diameter of 100mm. The core is medium grade steel One coil is receiving an input of 8V(peak-to-peak) @ 4 MHz from the function generator. The second coil is placed 1m away, and is...

I'm trying to come up with a lightweight solenoid linear actuator, by constructing two electromagnets that telescope. The outer coil would be wrapped around a soda straw, and the inner coil would fit inside the soda straw and be wrapped around something smaller, like a bamboo skewer (which also...

If I wrap a coil around a bar magnet and shoot current through the coil so that the magnetic field of the electromagnet is at the same polarity of the bar magnet will I have amplified the magnetic field of the bar magnet maintaining the same magnetic shape but bigger/stronger?

Howdy all, I'm looking at having two (preferably) stainless steel rods inside a plastic tube (for insulation and so they don't touch) with a push spring inside and between the two rods pushing each other away from one another, when not activated inside of an electromagnetic coil. When the coil...

I've been attempting to model a simple electromagnetic coil using HFSS, and have so far been unsuccessful. I have no problems constructing the coil; this is a simple geometry problem. I have a wire of a known geometry with insulation surrounding the wire, then a construct a helical path and then...

I was reading about drift velocity and according to http://amasci.com/miscon/speed.html 100VDC at 1A moving through ~12 AWG wire would produce an electron velocity of 8.4 cm/hr. Since that is incredibly slow I'm curious if a charged fluid (something like the oil used in an oil-based van de...

What keeps the current in an electromagnetic coil from moving between the touching conductors and instead go through the conductor? Is it the resistance being much higher between two touching sections of the coil? Is there a small amount of current "leaking" between each loop where they touch?

Hey guys, Im trying to design a electric gear shiftier for a motor bike. Basically I require about 200N of force to change gear with a 10mm throw (in both directions). I would like to use a tube neodymium magnet. (23mm diameter 25mm high with a 5mm hole throw the centre with a N48 grade) What I...

My situation is this. I have 6,560 ft (4 lb) of polyurethane-nylon coated #27 gauge round wire wound in a coil with an air core of 1 1/8 in. wide x 4 in. long x 4 in deep. I don't want to destroy my precious electromagnet so I'm afraid to give it some current. What would happen if I attached a...
