mu_rApprox

Approximation of relative permeability mu_r as a function of flux density B for soft magnetic materials

Information

This information is part of the Modelica Standard Library maintained by the Modelica Association.

The relative permeability mu_r as a function of flux density B for all soft magnetic materials currently included in this library is approximated with the following function [Ro00]:

Equation for approximation mu_r(B)

Two of the five parameters of this equation have a physical meaning, namely the initial relative permeability mu_i at B=0 and the magnetic flux density at maximum permeability B_myMax. B_N is the flux density normalized to latter parameter.
