Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around the application of Ampere's Law in determining the magnetic field strength (H) and magnetic flux density (B) in a core with varying conditions. Participants explore the implications of core reluctance and the relationship between H and B in the context of a specific setup involving an iron core and winding.

Discussion Character

  • Technical explanation
  • Debate/contested

Main Points Raised

  • One participant questions why Ampere's Law suggests H should be constant across different conditions, while simulations indicate that H varies.
  • Another participant emphasizes that Ampere's Law is an equation with multiple components that may change in different scenarios, suggesting that the relationship between H and B needs to be considered.
  • A participant clarifies the mathematical expression of Ampere's Law, stating that the integration of H over a closed loop equals N*I, and argues that under certain assumptions, H should be equal in all cases.
  • One participant challenges the assumption that B and H are equal at all points in the core, prompting a discussion about their relationship.
  • There are repeated requests for focusing on the context rather than spelling errors, indicating a desire for clarity in communication.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants express differing views on the application of Ampere's Law and the assumptions made regarding H and B. There is no consensus on the resolution of the apparent contradiction in the results obtained from simulations versus theoretical predictions.

Contextual Notes

Participants highlight the importance of considering core reluctance and the relationship between H and B, as well as the potential impact of varying conditions on the application of Ampere's Law. Some assumptions may not be fully addressed, leading to differing interpretations.

hello everybody!
I have a problem with ampere's low.assume that we have an iron core with a winding in on side of it as sketched in the below image.we want to find H(magnetic field strength) and B(magnetic flux density) in the core in different condition shown in the right of image .the cross-section area of the core is constant in every points and we don't want to ignore core reluctance.in all of the conditions,the ampere loop, winding turns and the current pass through the conductor is constant. according to ampere's low, H must be equal in all of these conditions.but,simulations have different result and H change in each of the conditions.intuitively,the H should be different because of changing in the distance of winding from core.so,why ampere's low can't show the difference in H?

Maybe I twill help if you write down Ampere's law. Then you can notice that it isn't just "H must be equal" but rather it is an equation. And the equation has various parts. And those parts relate to the things that are changing in the different cases.
 
the ampere's low says:integration of dot product of H in l(where l is the unit vector of ampere loop that is tangent to path)over a closed loop will be equal to N*I.here ,we can assume that the angle between l and H in all of the points of ampere loop(shown in the image) is zero, so dot product converted to numeric product and we can say:the integration of (H magnitude)*(l) is equal to N*I.we neglect flux leakage(and the area of cross-section doesn't change ),so the magnitude of B and H is equal in each point of the core.and eventually the magnitude of H depends on N,I and l.in the above conditions all of these variables is equal so according to ampere's low H must be equal in all cases.(but it doesn't in fact)
 
Law. It is Ampere's Law.

I suspect that English may not be your first language. I apologize if that is the case. If I had to work in any language besides English I'm pretty sure I'd starve. But it's hard to look this stuff up if you don't spell it correctly.

So you seem to have a contradiction. What did you forget?

Are B and H really "equal in each point of the core"? How are B and H related?
 
Ampere's Law.I am really sorry for my mistake,but It is better to focus on the context of passage instead of its spelling problems(it is clear that I made mistake).I have read your mentioned page before writing this thread.yes,you are right. "and H" was superfluous,but you could understand it from the next sentences.the correct sentence is:"the magnitude of B equal in each point of the core".I'm sorry for my English,but please read my posts patiently and think about it and then answer to it!Thank you

Pretty sure I did answer your question. I said: So you have a contradiction. What did you forget?

What changes between your cases? Does the thing that changes appear anywhere in Ampere's Law?

and also, how about putting spaces after your full stops and commas... would make it a heck of a lot easier to read and understand than all your sentences just running together in one continuous stream of words

learn something new and make it easier for people to help you :smile:
