Principle
A magnetic field is generated in a ring-shaped iron core by a
continuous adjustable direct current applied to two coils. The
field strength Η and the flux density B are
measured and the hysteresis recorded. The remanence and the
coercive field strength of two different iron cores can be
compared.
Benefits
- Simple experimental setup and intuitive handling of the software: Better results in less time
- Added value due to the use of datalogging: Direct visualisation of the learning objective
Tasks
Record the hysteresis curve for a massive iron core and for a
laminated one.
