Multipolar Magnetic Field Distribution Tester

Three Common Magnetic Field Measurement Systems

 

The demand for magnets has been increasing in several industries, such as sensor systems, actuator manufacturing, renewable energy sources, electronics, and medical devices. Especially in the electric motor industry, as one of the largest end consumers of permanent magnets, it plays a central role in positively impacting their demand due to urbanization, industrialization, clean transport, and the increasing demand for automation. Moreover, the expansion of wind power plants due to the growing population, climate change challenges, and increasing electricity demand is anticipated to drive market growth in the coming years.

Over one-third of the permanent magnet's production outputs have been used to manufacture various permanent magnet motors. The advantages include copper saving, power saving, weight reduction, small size, and high specific power. However, the design complexity and production tolerances are increasing to guarantee these motors' optimal operation and performance under all conditions. This means that magnetic field measurement equipment is necessary to measure and analyze the magnets' quality individually and within the end products. At present, several measurement systems can measure the magnetic field of magnets. These vary from a simple Gauss meter to an advanced multi-Hall sensor scanning system:

 

Gauss meter
A Gauss meter is a hand-held electronic device with a Hall sensor probe that measures the field strength perpendicular to the probe. On the probe's tip, a Hall sensor measures the voltage induced by the magnetic field, which is proportional to the magnetic flux density. The meter's display will show the Gauss field value. Depending on the measurement types, there are different probes, such as axial or transverse probes.

When measuring the magnetic field of a magnet with a Gauss meter, several factors affect the measurement result, such as the probe's orientation relative to the magnet and the distance to the magnet. High-accuracy positioning is thus required to get good results. This is particularly difficult for magnets with an inhomogeneous magnetic field distribution, such as multipole magnets, since small position changes can significantly influence the measured magnetic field.

 

Flux meter
A flux meter (Helmholtz coil meter) is designed to measure the amount of magnetic flux generated from a magnetic surface of a permanent magnet. It's used in physics labs to test the properties of materials. With a flux meter, a permanent magnet can be characterized by simply passing through the center of a Helmholtz coil with an open center volume based on a physical relationship between the number of windings of the coils and the variation of magnetic flux across the coils.

A flux meter is more challenging to use and more complex than a Gauss meter.
A Gauss meter and flux meter are suitable devices for measuring a few basic properties of a magnet, such as the magnetic field peak value and the magnetic flux. However, with hand-held instruments, the results can be somewhat inaccurate. The software with these instruments is rather basic. These measurement systems cannot answer all the complex questions about magnetic issues related to individual magnets, such as inhomogeneities, North/South asymmetries, and magnetic problems inherent to rotor assemblies of magnets, such as the NVH issues (the noise, vibration, and harshness issues).

 

Advanced magnetic field scanner
Advanced magnetic field scanner (Combi Scanner), a 4-axis motorized scan stage, is designed to measure the magnetic field distributions of permanent magnets in different types, shapes, and sizes. From individual magnets and magnet assemblies to permanent magnet rotors (radial and axial). The Combi Scanner can map 3D magnetic fields with high accuracy and spatial resolution thanks to a built-in magnetic field camera. It features an advanced on-chip 2D array of Hall sensors with more than 16000 measurement points.

Fundamentals of Magnetic Measurement

 

Magnetic induction intensity
Magnetic induction intensity is a physical quantity used to describe the properties of the magnetic field, expressed by B, the direction of B at a point in the magnetic field is the direction of the magnetic field at the point, and the size of B indicates the strength of the magnetic field at the point.

In the SI system of units (International System of Units), the unit of magnetic induction strength is [volts · second/meter 2], and [volts]·[second] is called Weber, so the unit of magnetic induction strength is called [Weber/meter 2] or [Tesla], referred to as [T], in the CGSM system of units, the unit of magnetic induction strength is [Gauss]. The units are denoted by symbols: V is [volts], s is [seconds], m is [meters], Wb is [Weber], T is [T], Gs is [Gauss], mT is [millite].
1T = 1Wb/m2=104Gs=103mT (1)

 

Magnetic line of force, magnetic flux and magnetic flux continuity theorem
Magnetic field is depicted graphically with magnetic field lines. The magnetic field lines of various magnetic fields generated by current are shown in Figure 1. Magnetic field lines are headless and tailless closed lines surrounding the current, and the direction of current and the direction of return of magnetic field line conform to the right-hand rule.

We specify that the tangent direction of any point of the magnetic field line is the direction of the magnetic field (i.e., B) at that point, and that the number of magnetic field lines per unit area perpendicular to the B vector is equal to the magnitude of the B vector at that point. In other words, where the magnetic field is strong, the magnetic field line is denser, and where the magnetic field is weak, the magnetic field line is thinner.

The total number of lines of magnetic force passing through a surface is called the magnetic flux passing through the surface and is represented by Φ. The calculation of magnetic flux is shown in Figure 2. The area element is taken on the surface, and a θ Angle is formed between the direction of its normal line and the direction of B of the point. The magnetic flux of the element passing through the area is: dφ=B×cosθ×ds (2)

 

Magnetic field strength, permeability and ampere-loop law
Magnetic field strength is a physical quantity introduced to facilitate the analysis of the relationship between magnetic field and current, it is also a vector, expressed by H, its relationship with magnetic induction intensity is:
H = B/μ (7)

Where: μ is the permeability of the magnetic medium, determined by the nature of the magnetic medium
Agreed. In SI units, the permeability of a vacuum is:
μ0 = 4π×10-7 Henry/m (8)

The unit of H is [ampere/meter], in the CGSM system of units, the permeability of a vacuum is 1, and the unit of H is [Oster], short for [Ao]. The units are represented by symbols: A is [ampere], Oe is [O], and H is [Henry].

FAQ
 

 

Q: What is magnetic field mapping?

A: Magnetic field mapping is an essential experiment in the study of physics, particularly in the field of electricity and magnetism. It involves mapping out the strength and direction of a magnetic field in a given space.

Q: What does a magnetic field sensor do?

A: A magnetic sensor is a sensor that detects the magnitude of magnetism and geomagnetism generated by a magnet or current. There are many different types of magnetic sensors.

Q: How does magnetic mapping work?

A: Grid-pattern surveys render two-dimensional (2-D) maps of the magnetic-field intensity, which can reveal the locations of subsurface ferrous objects with high magnetic susceptibilities. Generally, such objects produce high-magnitude data anomalies (positive and/or negative) as they alter the earth's magnetic field.

Q: What device detects magnetic fields?

Q: What does a magnetic field indicator do?

A: Magnetic Field Indicators, also known as gauss meters or magnetometers, are used to check residual magnetism after magnetic particle testing. They read the amount of residual magnetism left in a part quickly when the indicator arrow is placed against a magnetized part.

Q: What is the purpose of magnetic surveying?

A: Magnetic surveying is used to measure the spatial variations of the magnetic field. The results reflect the variations in the magnetic properties of the underlying rocks, and provide valuable information about their compositions and the structure of the earth's crust.

Q: What is a magnetic indicator used for?

A: Use to check for mag particle deterioration, to compare different magnetic powders, to verify sensitivity or visibility or to assure field direction and strength.

Q: What sensor detects magnetic field?

A: A magnetic sensor is a sensor that detects the magnitude of magnetism and geomagnetism generated by a magnet or current.

Q: What is magnetic field distribution?

A: The magnetic field distribution in and around a solid conductor of a magnetic material carrying alternating current. When the conductor is carrying alternating current, the internal magnetic field strength rises from zero at the center to a maximum at the surface.

Q: What does a magnetometer do?

A: A magnetometer is a passive instrument that measures changes in the Earth's magnetic field. In ocean exploration, it can be used to survey cultural heritage sites such as ship and aircraft wrecks and to characterize geological features on the seafloor.

Q: How to test for magnetic field?

A: The easiest, simplest, and most basic way of testing if something is magnetic is by using a magnet. Simply use a magnet and hold it close to the object you are wanting to test, if the object is magnetic it will attract towards the magnet, but if the object is non-magnetic, it will not attract.

Q: What device measures magnetic fields?

A: A magnetometer is a device that measures magnetic field or magnetic dipole moment.

Q: What do magnetic fields tell us?

A: A magnetic field is a picture that we use as a tool to describe how the magnetic force is distributed in the space around and within something magnetic. When we speak of the force due to a magnet (or any force for that matter) it has to be on something.

Q: Can a magnetometer be used as a metal detector?

A: The term "metal detector" (MD) generally refers to some type of electromagnetic induction instrument, although traditional magnetometers are often used to find buried metal. The disadvantage of magnetometers is that they can be used only for locating ferrous metals.

Q: How to view magnetic fields?

A: There are a few ways to detect magnetic fields, one of the most reliable is with magnetic viewer film. This unique film suspends tiny nickel particles over a thin layer of viscous material allowing the particles to align with magnetic fields. It shows the location, as well as how many poles, a magnet has.

Q: How to check magnetism?

A: The easiest, simplest, and most basic way of testing if something is magnetic is by using a magnet. Simply use a magnet and hold it close to the object you are wanting to test, if the object is magnetic it will attract towards the magnet, but if the object is non-magnetic, it will not attract.

Q: Is there an app that checks for magnetism?

A: Magnetic Tool has two modes: Simple and Advanced. With Simple mode, all you need to do is open the app and start testing—it's that simple. Advanced mode allows you to adjust the threshold tolerances of the magnetometer, which is most often used to reduce or eliminate interference from other nearby solenoid valves.

Q: What device measures magnetic field strength?

A: Devices for measuring the magnetic field strength are called magnetometers, magnetic field meters, gaussmeters or teslameters.

Q: Do magnetic field apps work?

A: So does this app really work? A. Yes, but NOT in the manner that you think. It works as far as measuring the NATURAL DC magnetic field of the Earth which varies according to locale and the proximity of ferromagnetic building material.

Q: Which unit is used to measure magnetic fields?

A: Tesla is the SI unit of magnetic field.
Technically, a distinction is made between magnetic field strength H, measured in amperes per meter (A/m), and magnetic flux density B, measured in Newton - meters per ampere (Nm/A), also called Tesla (T). 1 Tesla equals to 104 Gauss. The smaller unit being gauss.
