Question
1. a) A magnetic circuit is formed using an iron core with relative permeability 1000
and single air gap, and has the following parameters:
cross-sectional area: Ac =1.6 × 10-3 m²; mean core length lc = 0.8 m;
air gap length g = 2 x 10³ m.
A coil of 100 turns is wound on the iron core.
i)
Calculate the reluctance of the core Rc and that of the gap RG
neglecting the effects of fringing fields at the air gap and leakage flux
from the coil.
