In my simulation I have a wire with a fixed current flowing, I observed if I change the diameter of the wire the magnetic field (B) in a fixed point of the space also changes, is it correct?
That does not seem correct, as the magnetic field depends only the current.Agnelo said:In my simulation I have a wire with a fixed current flowing, I observed if I change the diameter of the wire the magnetic field (B) in a fixed point of the space also changes, is it correct?
Agnelo said:I have a wire with a 0.05A current over a measurement point at 0.03mm (border of wire), the length of wire is 5.08mm and the diameter is 0.025mm or 0.05mm...

A magnetic field is a region in space where magnetic forces can be felt. It is created by moving electric charges and can exert a force on other moving charges.
A magnetic field is created around a finite wire when an electric current flows through it. The direction of the magnetic field is perpendicular to the direction of the current and its strength is directly proportional to the amount of current flowing through the wire.
In an infinite wire, the magnetic field has a constant strength and direction along its length. In a finite wire, the magnetic field is strongest near the wire and decreases as you move further away from it.
The diameter of a wire affects the magnetic field around it by changing the amount of current that can flow through it. A larger diameter allows for more current and a stronger magnetic field, while a smaller diameter restricts the flow of current and weakens the magnetic field.
The strength of a magnetic field around a finite wire can be measured using a magnetometer. This device detects the direction and strength of a magnetic field and can be used to map out the field around a wire of different diameters.
