AnswersDriveMagnetic hysteresis is an important phenomenon and refers to the irreversibility of the magnetisation and demagnetisation process. When a material shows a degree of irreversibility it is known as hysteretic. We will now explore the physics behind ferromagnetic hysteresis.
What is B and H in BH curve?
A B-H curve is used to show the relationship between magnetic flux density (B) and magnetic field strength (H) for a particular material.
What is hysteresis law?
The cycle may be continued so that the graph of the flux density lagging behind the field strength appears as a complete loop, known as a hysteresis loop. The energy lost as heat, which is known as the hysteresis loss, in reversing the magnetization of the material is proportional to the area of the hysteresis loop.

What is the hysteresis curve?
A great deal of information can be learned about the magnetic properties of a material by studying its hysteresis loop. A hysteresis loop shows the relationship between the induced magnetic flux density (B) and the magnetizing force (H). It is often referred to as the B-H loop.

What is hysteresis and hysteresis loss?
The energy lost as heat, which is known as the hysteresis loss, in reversing the magnetization of the material is proportional to the area of the hysteresis loop. Therefore, cores of transformers are made of materials with narrow hysteresis loops so that little energy will be wasted in the form of heat.

What is the meaning of hysteresis loop?
Hysteresis. If an alternating magnetic field is applied to the material, its magnetization will trace out a loop called a hysteresis loop. The lack of retraceability of the magnetization curve is the property called hysteresis and it is related to the existence of magnetic domains in the material.

What is the BH curve?
B-H curve is used to show the relationship between magnetic flux density (B) and magnetic field strength (H) for a particular material. When tested experimentally, a ferromagnetic (i.e. strongly magnetic) material such as iron will produce a curve similar to that shown above.

What do you mean by magnetisation curve?
By plotting values of flux density, ( B ) against the field strength, ( H ) we can produce a set of curves called Magnetisation Curves, Magnetic Hysteresis Curves or more commonly B-H Curves for each type of core material used as shown below.
6
How hysteresis loss can be reduced?
To reduce hysteresis, use s good magnetic material for your construction and also use less value of magnetic flux density. You can laminate the core. Since laminating the core would have less eddy currents in the core.

What is hysteresis error in measurement?
The hysteresis error of a pressure sensor is the maximum difference in output at any measurement value within the sensor's specified range when approaching the point first with increasing and then with decreasing pressure.
8
What do you mean by retentivity and coercivity?
Coercivity is the intensity of the applied magnetic field required to reduce the magnetization of a given material to zero. In other words to coerce the material to surrender its magnetism. Retentivity is the capacity of an object to retain magnetism after the action of the magnetizing force has ceased.

What do you mean by hysteresis in electronics?
Often, some amount of hysteresis is intentionally added to an electronic circuit to prevent unwanted rapid switching. This and similar techniques are used to compensate for contact bounce in switches, or noise in an electrical signal. A Schmitt trigger is a simple electronic circuit that exhibits this property.

What is a magnetisation curve?
A magnetisation curve/hysteresis loop/B-H loop plots the relationship between the induced magnetic flux density (B) and the magnetizing force (H).
11
What is coercivity of a magnet?
For ferromagnetic material the coercivity is the intensity of the applied magnetic field required to reduce the magnetization of that material to zero after the magnetization of the sample has been driven to saturation. Thus coercivity measures the resistance of a ferromagnetic material to becoming demagnetized.
12
What is the difference between hard and soft magnetic materials?
Soft Magnetic Materials. 1. Materials which retain their magnetism and are difficult to demagnetize are called hard magnetic materials. These materials retain their magnetism even after the removal of the applied magnetic field. Hence these materials are used for making permanent magnets.
13
What is B and H in magnetic field?
Magnetic Field Strength H. H and M will have the same units, amperes/meter. To further distinguish B from H, B is sometimes called the magnetic flux density or the magnetic induction. The quantity M in these relationships is called the magnetization of the material.
14
What is eddy current and hysteresis losses?
Eddy current loss= The ohmic losses in a metal body, due to the eddy currents flowing through it, induced by an alternating magnetic field. Hysteresis loss= The loss in form of heat when magnetisation of the material is made to alternate with respect to time.
15
What is meant by ferromagnetic material?
Ferromagnetism is the basic mechanism by which certain materials (such as iron) form permanent magnets, or are attracted to magnets. In physics, several different types of magnetism are distinguished. The common ones are iron, nickel, cobalt and most of their alloys, and some compounds of rare earth metals.
16
What do you mean by magnetic susceptibility?
Magnetic susceptibility is a dimensionless proportionality constant that indicates the degree of magnetization of a material in response to an applied magnetic field. A related term is magnetizability, the proportion between magnetic moment and magnetic flux density.
17
What is a magnetic circuit?
A magnetic circuit is made up of one or more closed loop paths containing a magnetic flux. The flux is usually generated by permanent magnets or electromagnets and confined to the path by magnetic cores consisting of ferromagnetic materials like iron, although there may be air gaps or other materials in the path.
18
What do you mean by elastic hysteresis?
Elastic Hysteresis. When a deforming force is applied on a body, then the strain does not change simultaneously with stress, rather it lags behind the stress. The lagging of strain behind the stress is defined as elastic hysteresis.
19
What is the definition of remanence?
Remanence or remanent magnetization or residual magnetism is the magnetization left behind in a ferromagnetic material (such as iron) after an external magnetic field is removed. It is also the measure of that magnetization. Colloquially, when a magnet is "magnetized" it has remanence.
20
What is leakage coefficient?
In a magnetic circuit, the magnetic leakage can be described using the leakage coefficient, which can be obtained by dividing the sum of the useful and leakage flux, to the useful flux. Magnetic leakage can be defined as the passage of magnetic flux outside the path along which it can do useful work.
