Description

../../_images/magneticpermeance.svg

This component provides a magnetic flux path. It establishes a linear relationship between the magnetic flux \(\Phi\) and the magneto-motive force \(\mathcal{F}\). Magnetic permeance \(\mathcal{P}\) is the reciprocal of magnetic reluctance \(\mathcal{R}\):

\[\mathcal{P} = \frac{1}{\mathcal{R}} = \frac{\Phi}{\mathcal{F}}\]

Parameters

Permeance

Magnetic permeance of the flux path, in webers per ampere-turn \((\mathrm{Wb/A})\).

Initial MMF

Magneto-motive force at simulation start, in ampere-turns \((\mathrm{A})\).

Probe Signals

MMF

The magneto-motive force measured from the marked to the unmarked terminal, in ampere-turns \((\mathrm{A})\).

Flux

The magnetic flux flowing through the component, in webers \((\mathrm{Wb})\). A flux entering at the marked terminal is counted as positive.
