Explanation:
The given question is not complete. Refer to the question given below:
A laminated soft iron ring of relative permeability of 1000 has a mean circumference of 800 mm and a cross-sectional area of 500 mm2. A radial air gap of 1 mm width is cut in the ring wound with 1000 turns. Calculate the current required to produce an air-gap flux of 0.5 mWb if the leakage factor is 1.2 and the stacking factor is 0.9. Neglect fringing.
Concept:
Current can be determined by the formula- I = Total AT required / Relative Permeability where I is the current
Given:
Relative permeability = 1000
Mean circumference = 800mm
Cross-sectional area = 500mm²
Radial air-gap = 1mm
Turns = 1000
Air-gap flux = 0.5 mWb
Find:
We need to determine the current required to produce an air-gap flux.
Solution:
Total AT required = ФgSg + ФS = Фglg/μ₀Ag + Фl/μ₀μrAB
It has given to us that, air-gap flux, Фs = 0.5mWb = 0.5 ×10⁻³ Wb, lg = 1mm = 1 × 10⁻³m, Ag = 500 mm² = 500 × 10⁻⁶ m²
Flux in the ring is given by the equation, Ф = 1.2 × 0.5 × 10⁻³ Wb
We can calculate Net-Cross sectional area as Area = A × Stacking factor = 500 × 10⁻⁶ × 0.9 m²
Therefore, total AT required = 0.5 × 10⁻³ × 1 × 10⁻³/4π × 10⁻⁷ × 500 × 10⁻⁶ + 1.2 × 0.5 × 10⁻³ × 800 × 10⁻³/4π × 10⁻⁷ × 1000 × (0.9 × 500 × 10⁻⁶ )
= 1644
Therefore, I = Total AT required / Relative Permeability
I = 1644/1000
I = 1.64 A
Thus, the current required to produce an air-gap flux of 0.5 mWb is 1.64A.
