Problem 3.283

Fig. 3.76 illustrates a basic magnetization curve of iron (commercial purity grade). Using this plot, draw the permeability \(\mu\) as a function of the magnetic field strength \(H .\) At what value of \(H\) is the permeability the greatest? What is \(\mu_{\max }\) equal to?

Reveal Answer
H=0.06kA/m,μmax1.0104H=0.06 \mathrm{kA} / \mathrm{m}, \mu_{\max } \approx 1.0 \cdot 10^{4}
