Basic Concepts

2

Electromagnetic induction

The occurrence of EMF in a circuit when the magnetic flux through it changes.

EMF is created precisely by a change in magnetic flux; the resulting current, according to Lenz's rule, counteracts this change.

Self-induction

The occurrence of EMF in a circuit when its own current and magnetic flux change.

The coil prevents a rapid change in its own current: the greater the inductance and the rate of change of current, the greater the EMF.

Lesson formulas

Magnetic flux

Φ=BScosα\Phi=BS\cos\alpha

Magnetic flux depends on the induction, area and orientation of the surface.

Weber's definition

1Vb=1Vs=1Tlm21\,\mathrm{Vb}=1\,\mathrm{V}\cdot\mathrm{s}=1\,\mathrm{Tl}\cdot\mathrm{m}^2

One weber is equal to a volt-second and a tesla-square meter.

Law of Electromagnetic Induction

Ei=nΔΦΔt\mathcal{E}_i=n\frac{\lvert\Delta\Phi\rvert}{\Delta t}

The module of the induced emf is equal to the rate of change of the total magnetic flux.

Self-induced emf

Esi=LΔIΔt\mathcal{E}_{\text{si}}=L\frac{\lvert\Delta I\rvert}{\Delta t}

The self-inductive emf is proportional to the inductance and the rate of change of current.

Coil magnetic field energy

W=LI22W=\frac{LI^2}{2}

The energy of the magnetic field depends on the inductance and the square of the current.

EMF of conductor movement

E=Blvsinα\mathcal{E}=Blv\sin\alpha

EMF occurs when a conductor moves in a magnetic field.

Maximum EMF of the rotating frame

Emax=nBSω\mathcal{E}_{\max}=nBS\omega

The amplitude of the EMF of the frame is proportional to the number of turns, induction, area and angular velocity.

Flux linkage and current

Φ=LI\Phi=LI

The self-magnetic flux is proportional to the inductance and current.
