RE: [femm] Re: FEMM simulations errors ??



Hi,

   Just curious, but is a North pole the same field as emanates from the Earth’s North pole, or the field that comes from a compass’ North pointing end?

 

Thanks

Adrian

The way to see this is to think of each magnet as being composed of 2
point poles of strength Q.  For a N pole, the force on the pole is
B*Q, where B is the flux density created by the stator permanent
magnets.  For a S pole, the force is -B*Q.  When you look at it this
way, you can see that the vertical force should be zero, and there
should be a net horizontal force to the right.  One reference for this
trick is M. Lindeburg's "Engineer in Training Review Manual, 6th ed.,"
1982.
