Magnetism & Electricity (2 magnets - Field)

In summary, the conversation is about calculating the output voltage for a coil in an axial generator/alternator. The setup includes 2 magnets with a Br Max of 13200 Gauss on opposing sides of the rotor and the question is about what effective Br (Gauss/Tesla) should be used in Faraday's equations to achieve a desired result. The answer mentions that the specific geometry of the setup and desired tolerances will determine the value to be used, and suggests using a pole model for predicting the field at each angle.

I am trying to calculate the output voltage for 1 coil in an axial generator/altenator

I have 2 magnets with Br Max 13200 Gauss on opposing sides of the rotor (N-S facing), The coil is between them on stator. Using faradays equations what is the effective Br (Gauss/Tesla) that should be used.

Thanks

... should be used to achieve what aim?

Oh you mean, what approximate value should you use for B in Faraday's Law?
That will depend on the exact geometry of your setup - which determines the field characteristics - and the tolerances you want to work with (which determines how much hand-waving you get to use.)

You could, I guess, use a pole model for the magnets to predict the actual field through the loop at each angle?
 

What is magnetism?

Magnetism is a force generated by the movement of electric charges, typically in the form of electrons. It is a fundamental force of nature and is responsible for the attraction or repulsion between objects.

How do two magnets interact with each other?

Two magnets interact with each other through their magnetic fields. These fields are created by the alignment of the magnets' electron spins and can either attract or repel each other depending on their orientation.

What is an electric field?

An electric field is a region around a charged object where a force is exerted on other charged objects. It is created by the presence of electric charge and is responsible for the movement of electrons in electrical circuits.

How do electric and magnetic fields interact?

Electric and magnetic fields are interconnected and can influence each other. When an electric current flows through a wire, a magnetic field is generated around it. Similarly, a changing magnetic field can induce an electric current in a nearby wire.

What are some real-life applications of magnetism and electricity?

Magnetism and electricity have numerous practical applications in our daily lives. Some examples include generators, motors, MRI machines, credit cards, and speakers. They are also essential in telecommunications, transportation, and energy production.
