F = NI

F = magnetomotive force in A.t (ampere-turn)

N = number of turns

I = intensity of the current in A (ampere)

Example :

µ = 1,256 x 2 000 = 2 512 µH / m.



OBSERVATION  :



In Table VII of Figure 1, the values of the relative magnetic permeability of some diamagnetic, paramagnetic and ferromagnetic materials have been given. It should be noted that in general, the diamagnetic materials have a relative permeability value slightly less than 1 and that the paramagnetic materials have relative permeability values slightly greater than 1 ; these values can be considered to be practically equal to 1 in all technical applications.

The absolute permeability of the diamagnetic and paramagnetic materials is thus practically equal to that of the vacuum.

µ = µo x µr = 1,256 x 1 = 1,256 µH / m




 Permeabilite_magnetique_relative

The permeability of the ferromagnetic materials is not constant but changes according to the variation of the magnetization intensity ; for this reason, the maximum values are shown in Table VII. These values, however, are not sufficient to characterize the behavior of ferromagnetic materials ; for this purpose particular graphs, called magnetization curves, should be provided ; by these graphs (which are of little interest to the electronics engineer and therefore will not be taken into account in the form), it is possible to establish the value of the absolute permeability of the ferromagnetic materials in relation to the various values of the intensity. magnetization of these same materials.

likewise, we will have :

Indeed, if the wave is sinusoidal, (Figure 2-a), the efficient value is equal to the product of the maximum value by the number 0.707 ; on the other hand, if the wave is rectangular (Figure 2-b) the effective value is equal to the maximum value. If the wave is triangular (Figure 2-c), the effective value is equal to the product of the maximum value by the number 0.577 (Table VIII, Figure 3). In general, a precise number corresponds to each waveform, number between zero and 1, which multiplied by the maximum value, makes it possible to obtain the efficient value.

OBSERVATION :

The fixed number that multiplies the Effective value depends on the waveform. Indeed, if the wave is sinusoidal (Figure 2-a), one will use the factor 0.9 but if the wave is rectangular (Figure 2-b), one will use the factor 1 and because, the average value will be equal to the effective value ; finally, if the wave is triangular (Figure 2-c), we will use the factor 0.866 (table VIII, figure 3).

Enunciated : The pulse, expressed in radians per second, is given twice the product of the number P by the frequency, expressed in hertz.

w = 2 n f a_peu_pres_egal 6,28 f

w = pulse in rd / s (radian per second)

P = symbol of the number 3,14...

f = frequency in Hz (hertz)

  • Example :

Data : f = 400 Hz

Pulsation : w a_peu_pres_egal 6,28 x 400 = 2 512 rd / s.

HAUT DE PAGE FORMULA 149 - Calculation of the frequency of a periodic quantity, knowing the pulsation.

f = w / 2P a_peu_pres_egal 0,159 w 

f = frequency in Hz (hertz)

w = pulse in rd / s (radian per second)

P = fixed number symbol 3,14...

(This formula is from formula 148).

 

  • Example :

Data : w = 2 000 rd / s.

Frequency : f a_peu_pres_egal 0,159 x 2 000 = 318 Hz.

HAUT DE PAGE FORMULA 150 - Calculation of the pulsation of a periodic quantity, knowing its period.

w = 2P / T a_peu_pres_egal 6,28 / T

w = pulse in rd / s (radian per second)

P = fixed number symbol 3,14...

T = period in s (second)

The present formula is obtained by replacing in formula 148, the frequency f, by the second member of the Formula 142, namely 1 / T.

 

  • Example :

Data : T = 0,02 s (alternating current period at 50 Hz).

(This formula is from formula 150).

 

  • Example :

HAUT DE PAGE FORMULA 152 - Calculation of the capacitive reactance of a capacitor, knowing the capacity of the capacitor and the frequency of the alternating current which crosses it.

Calculation of the capacitive reactance of a capacitor

Enunciated : The capacitive reactance, expressed in ohms, is obtained by dividing the number 1 by 6,28 (2P) by the frequency, expressed in hertz and by the capacity, expressed in farads.

Xc = 1 / (2PfC) a_peu_pres_egal 1 / (6,28 fC)

Xc = capacitive reactance in W (ohm)

P = fixed number symbol 3,14...

f = frequency in Hz (hertz)

C = capacity in F (farad)

This formula is also written :

Xc = 1 / Cw

since according the Formula 148, w = 6,28 f.

 

  • Example :

Data : f = 3 000 Hz  ;  C = 500 nF (nanofarad) = 0,0000005 F.

Capacitive reactance : Xc a_peu_pres_egal 1 / (6,28 x 3 000 x 0,0000005) = 1 / 0,00942 a_peu_pres_egal 106,15 W.

OBSERVATION :

In calculations, it is often more convenient to replace the units of measurement of frequency and capacity with the corresponding multiples and submultiples ; in particular, it is possible to find the frequency expressed in kilohertz (kHz) or in megahertz (MHz) and the capacity in nanofarads (nF), in picofarads (pF), or in microfarads (µF). In all these cases, formula 152 can be used, taking into account the following :

  • If the frequency is expressed in hertz and the capacity in microfarads, the reactance will be expressed in megohms,

  • If the frequency is expressed in kilohertz and the capacity in nanofarads, the reactance will be expressed in megohms,

  • If the frequency is expressed in kilohertz and the capacity in microfarads, the reactance will be expressed in kilo-ohms,

  • If the frequency is expressed in megahertz and the capacity in nanofarads, the reactance will be expressed in kilo-ohms,

  • Finally, if the frequency is expressed in megahertz and the capacity in picofarads, the reactance will be expressed in megohms.

HAUT DE PAGE FORMULA 153 - Calculation of the capacity of a capacitor, knowing its capacitive reactance for a given frequency.

Xc = capacitive reactance in W (ohm)

(This formula is from formula 152).

  • Example :

Capacity :  C a_peu_pres_egal 1 / (6,28 x 5 000 x 400) 1 / 12 560 000 = 0,000 000 079 617 F

Calculation of the inductive reactance of a coil

Enunciated : The inductive reactance, expressed in ohms, is obtained by multiplying the fixed number 6,28 (2P) by the frequency, expressed in hertz and by the inductance, expressed in henries.

XL = 2 P f L a_peu_pres_egal 6,28 f L

XL = inductive reactance in W (ohm)

P = fixed number symbol 3,14...

f = frequency in Hz (hertz)

L = frequency in H (henry)

or :  XL = Lw           Since          w = 6,28 f (Formula 148).

  • Example :

Data : f = 250 000 Hz  ;  L = 0,006 H.

Inductive reactance : XL = 6,28 x 250 000 x 0,006 = 9 420 W.

OBSERVATION :

The formula 154 can also be used by expressing the frequency in kilohertz (kHz) and the inductance in millihenrys (mH), or the frequency in megahertz (MHz) and the inductance in microhenrys (µH) ; in either case, the inductive reactance will be expressed in ohms.

HAUT DE PAGE FORMULA 155 - Calculation of the inductance of a coil, knowing its inductive reactance for a given frequency.

Calculation of the inductance of a coil

L = XL / (2 P f) a_peu_pres_egal XL / 6,28 f

L = The inductance in H (henry)

XL = inductive reactance in W (ohm)

P = fixed number symbol 3,14...

f = frequency in Hz (hertz)

(This formula is from formula 154).

  • Example :

Data : XL = 20 000 = 20 000 W ;  f = 700 kHz (kilohertz) = 700 000 Hz.

Inductance : L = 20 000 / (6,28 x 700 000) = 20 000 / 4 396 000 a_peu_pres_egal 0,004 549 H

                            = 4,549 mH (millihenry).
