Electrical Engineering I Tutorial (November 2023)

1. An iron ring of 400 cm mean circumference is made from round iron of cross section 20
cm2. Its permeability is 500. If it is wound with 400 turns, what current would be required
to produce a flux of 0.001 Wb?

2. A coil of insulated wire of 500 turns and of resistance 4 Ω is closely wound on an iron
ring. The ring has a mean diameter of 0.25 m and a uniform cross-sectional area of 700
mm2. Calculate the total flux in the ring when a DC supply of 6 V is applied to the ends
of the winding. Assume a relative permeability of 550.

3. What are the similarities between electrical circuits and magnetic circuits? An iron ring
of mean length 50 cm and relative permeability 300 has an air gap of 1 mm. If the ring is
provided with winding of 200 turns and a current of 1 A is allowed to flow through, find
the flux density across the air gap.

4. A coil of 1,000 turns is wound on a laminated core of steel having a cross section of 5
cm2. The core has an air gap of 2 mm cut at right angle. What value of current is required
to have an air gap flux density of 0.5 T? The permeability of steel may be taken as
infinity. Determine the coil inductance.

5. A flux density of 1.2 Wb/m2 is required in 2-mm air gap of an electromagnet having an
iron path 1 m long. Calculate the magnetizing force and current required if the
electromagnet has 1,273 turns. Assume relative permeability of iron to be 1,500.
