1 Principle A magnetic field of variable frequency and varying strength is produced in a long coil. The voltages induced across thin coils which are pushed into the long coil are determined as a function of frequency and field strength of the magnetic field and the number of turns and the cross-section of the induction coil. Related topics Maxwell s equations, electrical eddy field, magnetic field of coils, coil, magnetic flux, induced voltage. Tasks Determination of the induction voltage as a function 1. of the strength of the magnetic field, 2. of the frequency of the magnetic field, 3. of the number of turns of the induction coil, 4. of the cross-section of the induction coil.

The field generating coil is connected to the function generator module and the induction coils to be put into the field generating coil are connected to "Analog In 2 / S2", best to the two yellow sockets (+ and ) and not to ground. Connect the Cobra3 Basic Unit to the computer port COM1, COM2 or to USB port (for USB computer port use USB to RS232 Converter ) and start the "measure" program. Select "Gauge" > "PowerGraph" and on the now visible "Setup" chart click the function generator symbol. Use the function generator in the constant current mode the produced field strength depending on the current strength is of interest and not the voltage that is needed to produce it. First use the function generator to produce a current ramp at a fixed frequency. Set the parameters as seen on Fig PHYWE Systeme GmbH & Co. KG All rights reserved P

4 Magnetic induction with Cobra3 Fig 3 Then click the "Analog In 2 / S2" symbol and set the module to "Burst measurement" as seen in Fig. 3. The "Settings" and "Display" charts of PowerGraph should look like Fig. 4 and Fig. 5. Fig. 4: The "Settings" chart of PowerGraph for amplitude ramp 4 PHYWE Systeme GmbH & Co. KG All rights reserved P

5 Fig 5: "Displays" chart of PowerGraph Take a measurement for each of the induction coils. Start measuring with the "Continue" button. (If you plan to make a logarithmic plot, correct the resulting curves by subtracting the value at zero current I from all values using "Analysis" > "Channel modification " with "U2" as "Source channel". The zero offset is due to digital noise and voltage induced from stray fields and may be regarded as constant during one measurement but may change slightly from measurement to measurement due to different arrangements of your cables. The offset deforms the logarithmic plot strongly but does not matter in a normal plot.) Note down the slope of the curve evaluated with the "Regression" tool of "measure" (in the linear plot). Then set the function generator on the "Setup" chart of PowerGraph to tune the frequency from 100 to 1000 Hz with constant current strength, i.e. constant magnetic field amplitude. See Fig. 6 for suitable settings. The "Settings" chart of PowerGraph should look like Fig. 7. Again take a measurement of each of the induction coils. (The correction of the zero offset may be done using the "Regression" tool of "measure": Subtract the value delivered by the "Regression" function as zero offset from the "U2" data using again "Analysis" > "Channel modification ".) Note down the slope values for further evaluation. P PHYWE Systeme GmbH & Co. KG All rights reserved 5

7 Fig. 7: "Settings" chart for frequency ramp Theory and evaluation For the first part with the constant frequency the obtained data may look like Fig. 8 if put into one single diagram with "Measurement" > "Assume channel " and scaled to the same value with "Scale curves".

8 Magnetic induction with Cobra3 Use the function "Regression" of "measure" to evaluate the slopes of the recorded measurement data yielding the response voltage of the induction coils per current strength in the field coil in V/A. Plot the response voltage per ma for induction coils with the same diameter but different number of turns vs. the number of turns and plot the response voltage per ma for induction coils with the same number of turns but different diameters vs. the cross-section area corresponding to the diameter. Use "Measurement" > "Enter data manually " to do so. Fig. 9 and Fig. 10 show possible results. Fig. 9: Voltage response vs. number of turns at constant crosssection area 8 PHYWE Systeme GmbH & Co.

9 Fig. 10: Voltage response vs. cross-section area with constant number of turns Fig. 11 shows the voltage response of the induction coil in dependency of the frequency of the field. With the data of Fig. 11 an analogous evaluation is possible. Fig. 11: Voltage response vs. frequency P PHYWE Systeme GmbH & Co. KG All rights reserved 9

10 Magnetic induction with Cobra3 For the comparison of the experimental data with theory two quantities must be determined in relation to the experimental parameters: 1. The inducted voltage in the induction coil in dependence of the number of turns and the cross sectional area of the induction coil and for a given field. 2. The magnetic field generated by the field coil in dependence of the length and the number of turns of the field coil and in dependence of the current flowing through the field coil. The generated magnetic field by the field coil is the given field for the induction coil in this experiment. Both relations follows from Maxwell s laws and the experimental conditions. Induction coil: According to Maxwell's second law, the induced electric potential by a changing magnetic flux ϕ(t) is the voltage U along a closed line C with U = C E d s = dφ d t φ(t) = A B d A (1) (2) A is the area enclosed by the line C. Inside the long field coil the magnetic field (given field for the induction coil) is spatial homogenous and only the amount of the field can change in time. Furthermore the cross sectional area A of the induction coil is in a plane perpendicular to B. Relation (2) can therefore be written as φ(t) = B (t) A (3) Inserting (3) in (1) and taking into account that the induction coil consists out of n parallel conductor loops yields U (t) = n A d B dt (4) 10 PHYWE Systeme GmbH & Co.

12 Magnetic induction with Cobra3 Field coil: Maxwell s first law μ 0 A B d s = j d A together with Maxwell's fourth law and A B d A = 0 I = A j d A results in B (t) = μ 0 m l I(t) (5) for the magnetic field generated by the field coil. µ 0 = Vs/Am is the magnetic field constant, m is the number of turns and l the lengths of the field coil. The current that flows through the field coil is denoted by I(t). Finally combination of the result for the induction coil (4), the result for the field coil (5) and I(t) = I 0 sin (ωt) yields U (t) = μ 0 n A m l I 0 cos(ω t) (6) or for the effective values U eff = μ 0 ω n A m l I eff So the voltage U eff on the induction coils should be proportional to the number of turns n of the induction coil the cross-sectional area A of the induction coil the number of turns m of the field coil the length l of the field coil the frequency ω of the current through the field coil the amount I eff of the current through the field coil. (7) The figures 8 to 11 display these proportionalities. The linear dependencies can be proved with help of bilogarithmic plots. For the dependencies of the induced voltage on the frequency and amount of the current through the field coil this is shown in Fig. 12 and PHYWE Systeme GmbH & Co. KG All rights reserved P

13 From equation (7) follows μ 0 = U I eff n ω A n for the magnetic field constant. With ω = 2 π f = 5027 Hz, m l = m yields Fig. 9 for the area 1320 mm 2 = m 2 the slope mv/(a n), thus 6 Vs μ 0 = Am for the area 531 mm 2 = m 2 the slope mv/(a n), thus μ 0 = Vs Am and Fig 10 yields for 300 turns the slope mv/(a mm 2 ), thus μ 0 = Vs Am These values fit quite well with the literature value of field constant. 6 Vs μ 0 = Am for the magnetic P PHYWE Systeme GmbH & Co.

Goals. Introduction. To understand the use of root mean square (rms) voltages and currents. Lab 10. AC Circuits Goals To show that AC voltages cannot generally be added without accounting for their phase relationships. That is, one must account for how they vary in time with respect to one another.
