MAGNETIC FIELDS

Magnetic fields are fundamental mechanism for electromechanical energy


conversion and electromagnetic energy conversion.

Motors, generators, transformers and the other electromechanical and


electromagnetic systems operate on the principle of the magnetic field.

A magnetic field is produced either by means of electric currents in coils of


wire or by means permanent magnets.

The area around a magnet or coil carrying electric current is called as


magnetic field, and it is in this area that the effects of the magnetic force.

ELECTROMECHANICAL ENERGY CONVERSION

MAGNETIC FIELDS

The magnetic field is a vector field, and direction of the field at any
point is defined to be the direction assumed by the axis of a magnetic
dipole suspended at that point.

It is convenient to represent the direction of the field vector by lines of


force (also called flux lines) which are lines that at any point they
indicate the direction of the field. For a magnetic field these lines are
known to be continuous closed curves, that is, they have no terminal
points.

12

ELECTROMECHANICAL ENERGY CONVERSION

MAGNETIC FLUX

Magnetic flux is the amount of magnetic field (or number of lines of


force) produced by a magnetic source

The another definition of the flux is the integration of a field vector


quantity such as B over an area yields a quantity called flux.

Magnetic flux is given the symbol

MAGNETIC INDUCTION (Magnetic Flux Density)

The basic Magnetic field quantity is the magnetic induction (Magnetic flux density), which is
given the symbol B.

It is defined as the flux per unit area through an element normal to the direction of flux.

The SI unit of induction is the tesla; unit designation [T] or webers per square meters;
[W/m2].

15

ELECTROMECHANICAL ENERGY CONVERSION)

MAGNETIC INDUCTION (Magnetic Flux Density)

Oersted discovered that a current carrying conductor has a


magnetic field associated with it, and that the direction of the
magnetic induction is tangential to a circle centered on the
conductor and lying in a plane normal to its centre line.
This fact is illustrated in the below Fig., where the X on the cross
section of the conductor indicates that the current is flowing into
the plane of the diagram.

MAGNETIC INDUCTION (Magnetic Flux Density)
The relationship between the direction of i and that of B is expressed by the
right-hand rule, which says that if a right-hand screw is turned to give a motion in
the direction of the current, then the direction in which it is turned is that of B
If a closed loop of conductor lying in a plane carries a current, then a magnetic field
is induced which may be illustrated by lines of induction.
(1) Imagine a current-carrying conductor held in the right hand with the thumb
pointing in the direction of current flow; the fingers then point in the direction of the
magnetic field created by that current.

17

ELECTROMECHANICAL ENERGY CONVERSION

MAGNETIC FIELD INTENSITY


Magnetic flux may be produced in one of three ways:
By electric currents
By permanent magnets
By a changing electric field

The last of these is only of importance when the electric fields are changing very
rapidly. Such situations do not normally arise in electromagnetic energy
conversion devices and this effect may be neglected here.

In discussing the current and flux density production of magnetic fields by


means of electric currents, it is convenient to consider that a physical property
exits which is intermediate between current and flux density. This property is the
magnetic field intensity H.

B-H Curves

For ferromagnetic materials, is not constant but varies with flux density
and there is no easy way to compute it. In reality, however,it isnt that you
are interested in: What you really want to know is,given B, what is H, and vice versa.

A set of curves,called B-H or magnetization curves,provides this


information. (These curves are obtained experimentally and are available in
handbooks. A separate curve is required for each material.)

The below Figure shows typical curves for cast iron, cast steel,and sheet steel.

ELECTROMECHANICAL ENERGY CONVERSION


Amperes Circutial Law

In a vacuum (and, to a very close approximation, in air) the relationship between


B and H is a simple one, expressed by

B= oH

Vectors B and H are collinear in free space and either may be employed to
express the magnitude of a magnetic field in vacuum.

Magnetic field intensity is related to the current producing it by Amperes


Circutial Law. This law, may be expressed by the equation

H dl= N i = J ds
S

The expression on the left-hand side of this equation is a line integral round the
closed loop. The expression on the right-hand side of this equation is a surface
integral over any surface bounded by the closed loop.

23

ELECTROMECHANICAL ENERGY CONVERSION

MAGNETOMOTVE FORCE

J is the current density, expressed in amperes per square meter at any point
in the conductors, so that the surface integral signifies several integration
carried out over separate conductor cross section.

The quantity (F = N i) denotes the ampere-turns enclosed by the assumed


closed path and is the source of magnetic flux which is the electric current
flowing in the N-turn winding.

This quantity F is also known as the magnetomotive force and frequently


abbreviated mmf. This relationship is useful in the study of electromagnetic
devices.

If the circuit consists of different sections, each of which has uniform cross
section, this equation becomes
F = N i = Hk lk

24

ELECTROMECHANICAL ENERGY CONVERSION

Amperes Circutial Law

This equation is analogous to Kirchhoffs voltage law for the summation of


voltages (electromotive forces) around a closed path.

The different parts of a magnetic circuit are in series if the flux passing through
each part is the same. This is the identical criterion to that for the series electric
circuit.

F k = N i = Hk lk is the mmf drop across the k'th element of that loop.


This is directly analogous to Kirchoff's voltage law for electric circuits consisting
of voltage sources and resistors
V = Rkik

where V is the source voltage driving current around a loop and Rkik is the
voltage drop across the k'th resistive element of that loop.

25

ELECTROMECHANICAL ENERGY CONVERSION

RELUCTANCE

Similarly, the analogy to Kirchoff's current law


in = 0

which says that the sum of currents into a node in an electric


circuit equals zero is

fn = 0 which states that the sum of the flux into a node in a magnetic
circuit is zero.

We are already aware that F is the driving mmf which creates the flux f
penetrating the specified cross - sectional area A.

This flux is limited in value by what is called the reluctance of the magnetic
circuit, which is defined as
R =l/A

F=fR

The inverse of the reluctance is known as permeance oh the magnetic circuit


P=1/R

26

EXAMPLE2
Elemantery magnetic
circuit

The core is assumed to be composed of magnetic material whose permeability is much


greater than that of the surrounding air ( >0).

The core is of uniform cross section and is excited by a winding of N turns carrying a
current of i amperes.
This winding produces a magnetic field in the core, as shown in the figure. The magnetic
field can be visualized in terms of flux lines which form closed loops interlinked with the
winding.
Because of the high permeability of the magnetic core, an exact solution would show
that the magnetic flux is confined almost entirely to the core, the field lines follow the path
defined by the core, and the flux density is essentially uniform over a cross section
because the cross-sectional area is uniform.
27

ELECTROMECHANICAL ENERGY CONVERSION


EXAMPLE2

When the Amperes law is applied, the net magnetic flux entering or leaving a
closed surface (equal to the surface integral of B over that closed surface) is
zero.
This is equivalent to saying that all the flux which enters the surface enclosing a
volume must leave that volume over some other portion of that surface because
magnetic flux lines form closed loops.
These facts can be used to justify the assumption that the magnetic flux density
is uniform across the cross and Amperes Circutial Law may be written as
fc = Bc Ac

where fc = flux in core,


Bc = flux density in core
Ac = cross-sectional area of core
From the relationship between the mmf acting on a magnetic circuit and the
magnetic field intensity in that circuit is.
Ni = Hclc

The direction of Hc in the core can be found from the right-hand rule, which can be stated in two equivalent
ways.

(1) Imagine a current-carrying conductor held in the right hand with the thumb
pointing in the direction of current flow; the fingers then point in the direction of the
magnetic field created by that current.

2) Equivalently, if the coil in the Fig. is grasped in the right hand with the fingers pointing in
the direction of the current, the thumb will point in the direction of the magnetic fields.

However, energy conversion devices which incorporate a moving
element must have air gaps in their magnetic circuits.

30

ELECTROMECHANICAL ENERGY CONVERSION


EXAMPLE3

When the air-gap length g is much smaller than the dimensions of the
adjacent core faces, the magnetic flux f will follow the path defined by
the core and the air gap and the techniques of magnetic-circuit
analysis can be used.

If the air-gap length becomes excessively large, the flux will be


observed to "leak out" of the sides of the air gap and the techniques of
magnetic-circuit analysis will no longer be strictly applicable.

Thus, provided the air-gap length g is sufficiently small, the


configuration of this magnetic core can be analyzed as a magnetic
circuit with two series components: a magnetic core of permeability ,
cross-sectional area Ac, and mean length lc, and an air gap of
permeability 0, cross-sectional area Ag, and length g.

Electromagnetic Force

Electromechanical energy conversion depends on two basic electromagnetic


principles; electromagnetic induction and electromagnetic force.
According BioSavart studies, If a current carrying conductor is placed in a
magnetic field, then a force is exerted on the conductor.
The force on the current-carrying conductor is given by the relation

F = i ( l B)

the force on the current-conductor in a magnetic field


depends on :
the flux density of the field, B teslas,
the strength of the current, i amperes,
the length of the conductor, l meters
the direction of the field and current.

The SI unit of the force is the Newton; unit designation N.

Faradays Law - Induced Electromotive Force

In 1820 Oersted ebserved that a compass needle is deflected by a current-carrying


conductor.
In 1831 Faraday discovered the principle of induced electromotive force (emf) on
which design and operation of generators, motors, and transformers are based.
Faradays discover is called Faradays Law.

Faraday shows that if a conductor with the proper orientation moves through in a
magnetic field, or not moves but the flux passing through is changed, then an
electromagnetic force is induced in the conductor.
This induced electromagnetic force is called also as induced voltage. The symbol for
emf is e, and the SI unit of emf is the volt; unit designation V.

40

Faradays Law - Induced Electromotive Force

If a loop a conductor moves in a magnetic field and if the magnetic flux passing
through the loop is changed, then induced voltage will be function of time and
motion.
According Faraday law, if the total flux linking in the translational motion then the
expression for the induced voltage may be written as mathematically

e=

From this relation it is shown that the induced voltage has two component;
first one is the transformer voltage due to the rate of change of the magnetic flux
linking,
second one is the motion voltage due to the velocity .

TRANSFORMERS

Transformers are the electromagnetic system that are convert the


electric energy at one voltage and current level to electric energy at
another voltage and current level by making without any rotational or
translational motion

The principle of transformer action is based on the work of Michael


Faraday (1791-1867) whose discoveries in electromagnetic induction
showed that, given two magnetically coupled coils, a changing current
in one coil will induce an electromotive force in the other coil.

Such electromagnetically induced emfs are called transformer voltages,


and coils specifically arranged for such purposes are called
transformers.
45

TRANSFORMERS

Essentially, a transformer consists of two or more windings coupled by


mutual magnetic flux.

It is conventional to think of the "input" to the transformer as the primary


and the "output" as the secondary.

46

TRANSFORMERS

However, in many applications, power can flow either way and the concept
of primary and secondary windings can become confusing. An alternate
terminology, which refers to the windings as "high-voltage" and "lowvoltage," is often used and eliminates this confusion.

The high-voltage coils are wound with a greater number of turns of smaller
cross-section conductor than the low voltage coils.

47

TRANSFORMERS

Transformers are very versatile.


They are manufactured in he wide power bands afew watts-MVA, afewV-kV,
and wide size afew cm-m.
They are used

laminations, and each lamination is insulated with a varnish or oxide coating to

TRANSFORMERS

The two basic types of transformer construction used for Transformers used in
the electronics and telecomminication systems
Transformers fall into two broad categories,iron-core and air-core.
Iron core transformers are generally used for low frequency applications such as
audio- and power-frequency applications.
Iron, however, has considerable power loss due to hysteresis and eddy
currents at high frequencies, and is thus not useful as a core material above
about 50 kHz.
For high-frequency applications (such as in radio circuits), air-core and ferritecore types are used.
Ferrite (a magnetic material made from powdered iron oxide) Greatly increases
coupling between coils (compared with air) while maintaining low losses

55

TRANSFORMERS

The principle of transformer action is explained with the aid of below figure, which
shows coil 1 connected to a batterv through a switch and coil 2 connected to a
resistor.
Closing the switch causes a clockwise (CW) build
up of flux in the iron core, generating a voltage in
each coil that is proportional to the number of
turns in the coil and the rate of change of flux
through the respective coils.
In accordance with Lenz's law, the voltage
generated in each coil will be induced in a
direction to oppose the action that caused it.
Thus. the induced emf in coil 1 must be opposite
in direction to the battery voltage.
This
opposing voltage shown as e1 in the Figure is
called a counter-emf (cemf).

Assuming no leakage, the same flux (called the mutual flux) exists in both coils. Thus, the

TRANSFORMERS WITH SINUSOIDAL VOLTAGES


The primary connected to a sinusoidal source and the secondary connected to a
switch and a resistor load.
Assumptions:
- the permeability of the core is
constant over the range of
transformer operation. and thus the
reluctance of the core is constant;
- there is no leakage flux, hence the
same flux links both primary and
secondary windings

The variation of the flux will be sinusoidal

= max sini = max sin2pft

The voltages induced in the primary and secondary windings by the sinusoidal
variation of flux in the respective coil windows, expressed in terms of rms
values are,

E1 = 4.44N1f max

E 2 = 4.44N 2 f max

E1 N1

Thus, assuming no leakage flux, the ratio of induced voltage equal the ratio of turns.

IDEAL TRANSFORMER

The first model which will be drived for the transformer


the ideal
transformer under the assumptions that
The electric fields effect produced by the windings are negligible,
All magnetic flux is confined to the ferromagnetic core (i.e leakage flux is
assumed negligible),
The relative permeability of the core material is so high that negligible
mmf is requried to establish the flux in the core,
The core losses are negligible.

58

TRANSFORMERS
IDEAL TRANSFORMER
Under the above assumptions, when a time-varying voltage vl is impressed on
the primary terminals, a core flux must be established such that the counter emf
el equals the impressed voltage. Thus

The core flux also links the secondary and produces an induced emf e2, and an equal
secondary terminal voltage v2, given by

59

Thus an ideal transformer transforms voltages in the direct ratio of the turns in its
windings.
Now let a load be connected to the secondary. A current i2 an
Now let a load be connected to the secondary. A current i2 and an mmf
N2i2 are then present in the secondary.

Since the core permeability is assumed very large and since the impressed
primary voltage sets the core flux as specfied by Eq.

the core flux is unchanged by the presence of a load on the secondary, and hence
the net exciting mmf acting on the core (equal to Nlil + N2i2) will not change
and hence will remain negligible. Thus

Thus,

Transferring an impedance from one side of a transformer to the other in this


fashion is called referring the impedance to the other side; impedances transform
as the square of the turns ratio.

To summarize, in an ideal transformer, voltages are transformed in the direct ratio


of turns, currents in the inverse ratio, and impedances in the direct ratio squared;
power and voltamperes are unchanged.

R2 + j X2 =1 + j4 Ohm connected in series with the secondary. The turns ratio N1/N2
= 5:1. (a) Draw an equivalent circuit with the series impedance referred to the
primary side. (b) For a primary voltage of 120 V rms and a short connected across
the terminals A-B, calculate the primary current and the current flowing in the short.

Solution

a. The new equivalent is shown in Fig.b. The secondary impedance is referred


to the primary by the turns ratio squared. Thus

b. From Eq. Z1=(N1/N2)2 Z2 a short at terminals A-B will appear as a short at the
primary of the ideal transformer in Fig.b. since the zero voltage of the short is
reflected by the turns ratio N1/N2 to the primary. Hence the primary current will
be given by

corresponding to a magnitude of 1.16 Arms. From Il = N2I2/ Nl , the secondary current will
equal N1/N2 = 5 times that of the current in the primary. Thus the current in the short

b. From Z1=(N1/N2)2 Z2, a short at terminals A-B will appear as a short at the primary
of the ideal transformer in Fig.b since the zero voltage of the short is reflected by the
turns ratio N1/N2 to the primary.
Hence the primary current will be given by

I1 = V1 / (R'2 + jX'2) = (120 / (25 + jl00)= 0.28 + j 1.13 Arms


corresponding to a magnitude of 1.16 Arms. From Il = N2I2/ Nl , the secondary current
will equal N1/N2 = 5 times that of the current in the primary. Thus the current in the
short will have a magnitude of 5(1.16) = 5.8 A rms

Example 3.
A generator rated at 480V, 60 Hz is connected a transmission line with an impedance
of 0.18+j0.24 Ohm. At the end of the transmission line there is a load of 4+j3 Ohm.
a) If the power system is exactly as described above in Figure (a), what will the
voltage at the load be? What will the transmission line losses be?
b) Suppose a 1:10 step-up transformer is placed at the generator end of the
transmission line and a 10:1 step-down transformer is placed at the load end of the
line (Figure (b)). What will the load voltage be now? What will the transmission line
losses be now?
