Calculation of the field of a cylindrical coil (Solenoid) The integral form of the Maxwell equation is d Hd s j d A DAd , (1) A S dt where S denotes any closed curve, A the corresponding enclosed area, H the magnetic field, j the current density and D the dielectric displacement. For DC currents one has Hd s j d A , (2) S 2 with the differential form H j . (3) With the quantities defined in Fig. 1 Biot-Savarts law can be written as I dl r dH , 4 r2 (4) Fig.1 Towards the law of Biot-Savart where r denotes the unit vector pointing from the line element dl to the observation point P; r is the distance between line element and P. Using this law the magnetic field strength, defined by the electrical current, can be calculated at any point P. Biot-Savarts law is the equivalent to Amperes law. In the special case of a circular conducting wire loop (see Fig. 2) the axial components (dHz) of all wire loop elements dl have the same direction and add up. However, the radial components dHr compensate in pairs. Fig. 2 Calculation of the axial component of the magnetic field of a circular conducting wire loop using Biot-Savarts law With dH = dHz /sin and sin =R/r one obtains I Rd l dHz , (5) 2 2 3 4 R z since r is perpendicular to dl. The integration over all elements of the circular wire loop (full length 2R) yields the equation 3 IR2 H() z . (6) 3 2 R2 z 2 If the wire loops are adjacent to form a coil, the magnetic field components are superimposed to yield a total field at the test point P of distance z = a in Fig. 3. Fig. 3 Calculation of the B-field of a solenoid The density of turns (number of turns per unit length) of a long, tightly wound solenoid is n = N/L , where N is the number of turns and L is the length of the solenoid. Thus, ndz wire loops are between z and z+dz carrying the current I n dz. This current generates an axial component of the magnetic flux density dBz in the point P ( z = a) of Fig. 3 0 2 1 dBz I R n d z , (7) 2 2 2 3 R() a z where 0 denotes the vacuum permeability. The integration over the total length L of the solenoid gives a L a B B() a 0 I n . (8) z 2 2 2 2 2 R a R () L a It follows from Eq. (8) that the amount of magnetic flux density at the beginning (a = 0) and at the end a = L of the solenoid is half of that in the center (a = L/2) of the solenoid (for R << L). 2. Calculation of the axial field component of a pair of coils The starting point is the calculation of the axial component B(z) of the magnetic flux density of a flat circular coil with radius R and the number of turns N. Using Eq. (6) B(z) can be calculated immediately by adding the field contributions of the single wire loops for a flat coil with thickness D<< R): 4 INR2 1 B() z 0 . (9) 2 ()z2 R 2 3 Fig.4 Calculation of B(z) for a pair of coils The magnetic flux density along the axis of two identical flat coils facing each other parallel and coaxial, see Fig. 4, is calculated adding the fields of the single coils. For the coil distance b the magnetic flux density in distance z from the axis center (Fig. 4) is 2 IN R 1 1 B() z 0 . (10) 3 3 2 2 2 2b 2 b R z R z 2 2 The current direction is the same in both coils. Discuss the field distribution in case of oppositely directed currents. Check your consideration in the experiment. Using Eq. (10) one can calculate, that the magnetic flux density Bz shows a maximum for z = 0 and a R , whereas for a R it shows a minimum at z = 0. For a = R the magnetic flux density between the coils is approximately homogeneously in the range -R/2 z R/2. Hints to the experimental procedure Task 1: Before starting the measurements, check the calibration of the digital teslameter. To this end the field sensor is positioned in the center of the solenoid provided for the calibration (data: number of turns N = 300, length L = 161.4 mm, diameter D = 32.6 mm). During the preparation at home, calculate the current necessary to generate a magnetic flux density of Bset = 2 mT at the center of the solenoid. The teslameter needs about 10 min to warm up. After warm-up the zero point controller of the teslameter should be adjusted to zero. Then set the dc current value (measured by a digital multimeter, error 0,1 %) calculated during the preparation and read off the measured value of Bexp. 5 The relative standard error of the digital teslameter is 2 %. The difference between Bexp and Bset should not exceed a relative deviation of 3 %, otherwise a systematic correction should be considered. Task 2: A coil current corresponding to a value B = 1 mT (or 2 mT) at the center of the solenoid has to be adjusted dependent on the maximal value of the current given at the work station. To measure the axial field distribution Bz(a) the distance a between the field sensor and the coil center is increased shifting the coil in steps of a magnitude appropriate to map out the field change with sufficient accuracy. Since the axial field distribution is symmetric around the center of the solenoid, the field distribution has to be measured only in one direction. Measured and calculated values for the field distribution should be presented in one diagram Bz(a). Task 3: The axial field distribution of a flat circular coil (data given at workstation) should be recorded step by step analogous to task 2 but on both sides. In order to quantify the analysis plot both experimental and calculated field profiles in one figure. Determine graphically and arithmetically the distance from the coil center, at which the maximum value of the magnetic flux density decreases to one half of the value at the center of the coil. Task 4: The axial field profiles of the magnetic flux density B(z) in a pair of coils have to be recorded step by step analogously to task 3. Start with the smallest distance a=R/2 and set the center value of the magnetic flux density to Bcent=2 mT (or higher dependent on the maximal current of the coils used). Additionally, measure the axial profiles B(z) for coil distances a=R and a=2R between the two flat coils (coil data as in task 3). Additional task: magnetic moment of a permanent magnet The magnetic moment m (units of A m2) is defined by the following equation: M m B (11) where M denotes the torque and B the magnetic induction.

Fong, I. Sekachev, G. Clark, V. Zvyagintsev, TRIUMF∗, Vancouver, BC, V6T2A3, Canada, R. Eichhorn, FZ-Juelich, Germany Abstract The medium beta section of the ISAC-II Heavy Ion Ac- celerator consists of five cryomodules each containing four quarter wave bulk niobium resonators and one supercon- ducting solenoid. The 9 T solenoid is not shielded but is equipped with bucking coils to reduce the magnetic field in the neighbouring rf cavities. A prototype cryomodule has been designed and assembled at TRIUMF. The cryomod- ule vacuum space shares the cavity vacuum and contains a mu-metal shield, an LN2 cooled, copper, thermal shield, plus the cold mass and support system. Several cold tests have been done to characterize the cryomodule. Early op- erating experience with a high field solenoid inside a cry- omodule containing SRF cavities will be given. The re- sults include measurements of the passive magnetic field in the cryomodule. We also estimate changes in the magnetic Figure 1: Cryomodule top assembly in the assembly frame field during the test due to trapped flux in the solenoid. prior to the cold test.

By sensing the trajectory of the valve spool, more efficient control schemes can be implemented. Therefore, the goal of this study is to derive an analytical model for spool displacement sensing based on coil inductance. First, a mathematical model of the coil inductance as a function of air gap width and lumped magnetic reluctance is derived. Second, to solve the inductance from coil current, an optimization to obtain an initial value based on physical constraints is proposed. Furthermore, an experiment using a laser triangulation sensor is designed to correlate the magnetic reluctance to the air gap. Lastly, using the obtained empirical reluctance model to eliminate unknowns from the proposed air gap-inductance model, the model in atmosphere or hydraulic oil environments was tested. Initial results showed that the proposed model is capable of calculating the spool displacement based on the coil current, and the estimation errors compared to the laser measurement are within ±7% in air environment. Keywords: on–off solenoid; air gap; spool displacement sensing; solenoid inductance; laser triangulation sensor 1.

People’s requirements for the flexibility of charging equipment are becoming increasingly prominent. How to get rid of the “flitch plate type” wireless charging method and enhance the anti-offset performance is the main research direction. Directional characteristics of the system can affect the load receive power and system efficiency in practical applications. In this paper, the power and efficiency of the WPT system via CMR were analyzed according to the principle of near-field strong coupling at first. The expression of the mutual inductance between the transmitting and the receiving coils under angular offset was derived from the perspective of the mathematical model, and the influences of angular deviation were analyzed. Second, simulation models were established under different distance between coils, different coil types, and different coil radius ratios in symmetrical and asymmetrical systems. Afterwards, the directional law was obtained, providing reference for the optimal design of coupling coils.

  • Magnetic Field Outside an Ideal Solenoid—C.E
    Magnetic Field Outside an Ideal Solenoid—C.E. Mungan, Spring 2001 It is well known that the longitudinal magnetic field outside an ideal solenoid (i.e., one that is wound infinitely tightly and that is infinitely long) is zero. The question is how to convince a (reasonably bright) student of this of on her first encounter with it. Textbooks typically use Ampère’s law for this purpose, as follows. r2 r1 Draw an Ampèrian loop, as sketched above, with two sides parallel to the axis of the solenoid and the other two sides perpendicular to it. Ampère’s law applied to this loop gives =−µ Br()20 nI Br () 1, (1) where n is the number of windings per unit length and I is the current in the solenoid, in the usual manner. Now draw a second Ampèrian loop by increasing r2 while keeping r1 fixed. We again get Eq. (1). But the right-hand side of this equation is unchanged. We conclude that =≡ Br()2 constant Boutside . The argument is now that Boutside cannot have a nonzero value extending out to infinity and hence it must be zero. This last statement is hard for an introductory student to swallow. After all, the solenoid is infinite in length and hence extends to infinity! Or consider an infinite sheet of uniformly distributed charge—it has a constant electric field all the way out to infinity. As instructors, we usually have to spend some time explaining what this means (why it is reasonable for an ideal infinite sheet and how it corresponds to a real, i.e.

  • 1 CHAPTER 9 MAGNETIC POTENTIAL 9.1 Introduction We Are Familiar with the Idea That an Electric Field E Can Be Expressed As
    1 CHAPTER 9 MAGNETIC POTENTIAL 9.1 Introduction We are familiar with the idea that an electric field E can be expressed as minus the gradient of a potential function V. That is E = −grad V = −===V. 9.1.1 Note that V is not unique, because an arbitrary constant can be added to it. We can define a unique V by assigning a particular value of V to some point (such as zero at infinity). Can we express the magnetic field B in a similar manner as the gradient of some potential function ψ, so that, for example, B = −grad ψ = − ===ψ ? Before answering this, we note that there are some differences between E and B . Unlike E, the magnetic field B is sourceless ; there are no sources or sinks; the magnetic field lines are closed loops. The force on a charge q in an electric field is qE, and it depends only on where the charge is in the electric field – i.e. on its position. Thus the force is conservative , and we understand from any study of classical mechanics that only conservative forces can be expressed as the derivative of a potential function. The force on a charge q in a magnetic field is qv %%% B . This force (the Lorentz force) does not depend only on the position of the particle, but also on its velocity (speed and direction). Thus the force is not conservative. This suggests that perhaps we cannot express the magnetic field merely as the gradient of a scalar potential function – and this is correct; we cannot.

    Derivation of magnetic Coulomb’s law for thin, semi-infinite solenoids Masao Kitano∗ Department of Electronic Science and Engineering, Kyoto University, Katsura, Kyoto 615-8510, Japan and CREST, Japan Science and Technology Agency, Tokyo 103-0028, Japan (Dated: February 2, 2008) It is shown that the magnetic force between thin, semi-infinite solenoids obeys a Coulomb-type law, which corresponds to that for magnetic monopoles placed at the end points of each solenoid. We derive the magnetic Coulomb law from the basic principles of electromagnetism, namely from the Maxwell equations and the Lorentz force. I.

  • Chapter 10 Superconducting Solenoid Magnets
    Chapter 10 Superconducting Solenoid Magnets 10.1 Introduction The Neutrino Factory [1], [2], [3], beyond approximately 18 m from the target, requires three solenoid-based magnetic channels. In total, more than 530 m of solenoids with di®erent magnetic strengths and bore sizes are used in order to prepare the muon beam for injection into the muon acceleration system. This is followed by the pre-acceleration linac with several di®erent low-stray-¯eld solenoids. 10.2 Decay and Phase Rotation Channel Solenoids The decay and phase rotation region includes the muon decay channel, an induction linac (IL1), the mini-cooler and two additional induction linacs (IL2, IL3). This region extends from z = 18 m (from the target) to z = 356 m; within it, there are four types of solenoids. From z = 18 m to z = 36 m, the decay section has a warm bore diameter of 600 mm. ² Around this warm bore is a water-cooled copper shield that is 100 mm thick. The solenoid cryostat warm bore is 800 mm. The 18 m of decay solenoid is divided into six cryostats, each 2.9-m long. This same type of magnet is used for the 9-m long mini-cooling sections on either side of the field-flip solenoid. As a result, there are twelve magnets of this type. The IL1 solenoids, which extend from z = 36 m to z = 146 m, have a beam ² aperture of 600 mm diameter. Around the bore is a 10-mm-thick water-cooled copper radiation shield. The warm bore of this magnet cryostat is 620 mm in diameter.
