BH Curve - Ferromagnetic Hysteresis Experiment Set Up

Objectives

To observe and study the magnetization behavior of the ferromagnetic magnetic materials provided.

Principle

The B-H curve is the curve characteristic of the magnetic properties of a material or element or alloy. It tells you how the material responds to an external magnetic field, and is a critical piece of information when designing magnetic circuits. A Ferromagnetic material, retains its magnetization even after the external magnetic field is removed. And the reversal or change in the direction of the applied external magnetic field results in a change in the magnetization of the ferromagnetic material. It is seen that the change in the magnetization lags behind the change in the applied external magnetic field. Thereby, a hysteresis behaviour is exhibited.

Key Features

• Compact Setup –  The apparatus design is compact and yet effective to perform the experiments with ease. The simple connections and stand to hold the teslameter probe, makes it easy to handle.
• Multiple samples included – Multiple ferromagnetic samples are provided to study the BH curves of the different materials. The removable cores make it easy to change between samples.

• KSCI-PH94014 B- H Curve Measuring Apparatus 1
• KSCI-DMM Multimeter 1
• KSCI-61035D/5 Advanced Power Supply 1
• KSCI-TMETER Teslameter 1
