I plan on ensuring the mis-alignment to be somewhat large to induce the needed torque. I need to be able to rotate the magnet 40-60 degrees one way and then reverse the solenoid and rotate it back to the original positions. I am curious at my minimum mis alignment how much torque can I get...
I am a mechanical engineer and am having to do some calculations concerning magnets and solenoids for a project I am on.
I have a solenoid (defined by number loops, current and cross sectional area).
Inside the solenoid is a rare Earth bar magnet of some length, initial mis alignment...
