How to Convert Oersted to Tesla?

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The conversion from Oersted (Oe) to Tesla (T) is established through the relationship that 1 A/m equals 4π × 10-3 Oe. For a magnetic field strength of 50 Oe, the corresponding magnetic flux density in Tesla can be calculated using the conversion factor. Specifically, in a vacuum, a magnetic field strength of 1 A/m results in a magnetic flux density of 4π × 10-7 T.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of magnetic field strength and units (Oersted and Tesla)
  • Basic knowledge of electromagnetism principles
  • Familiarity with conversion factors in physics
  • Concept of magnetic flux density
NEXT STEPS
  • Research the relationship between A/m and Oe in different materials
  • Learn about magnetic flux density calculations in various contexts
  • Explore the applications of Tesla in real-world magnetic field measurements
  • Study the principles of electromagnetism in more depth
USEFUL FOR

Physics students, electrical engineers, and professionals working with magnetic fields and measurements will benefit from this discussion.

# If the magnetic field is Oersted, how to convert it into Tesla? Suppose the magnetic field is 50 Oersted, in Tesla what is the magnetic field?

Hello Amith2006,

the following relation for magnetic field strength given in Ampere A/metre m and Oersted Oe holds true for vacuum and matter:

1\,\frac{A}{m}=4\pi\,10^{-3}\,Oe


In vacuum a magnetic field strength of 1\,\frac{A}{m} will lead to a magnetic flux density of 4\pi\,10^{-7}\,T.

Regards,
