Magnetic flux through a coil, two ways

The same calculation run twice, side by side. Change anything on either side and the difference is shown output by output. This page is a link: both sets of numbers are in the address bar.

Side A open alone

B Field strength

The magnetic flux density at the coil. Core datasheets of the period are quoted in gauss.

A Coil area

cm²

The cross-sectional area the field passes through.

θ Angle

The angle between the field and the coil's normal. Zero is face-on, where linkage is greatest.

Side B open alone

B Field strength

The magnetic flux density at the coil. Core datasheets of the period are quoted in gauss.

A Coil area

cm²

The cross-sectional area the field passes through.

θ Angle

The angle between the field and the coil's normal. Zero is face-on, where linkage is greatest.

Swap sides

What changed

The two sides are the same. Change something on either.

Output	A	B	B against A
Φ Magnetic flux	500 µWb	500 µWb	same

Side A, with its numbers

500 µWb = 0.5 T 10 cm² \cos (0 °)

LaTeX

500\,\mathrm{µWb} = 0.5\,\mathrm{T} \cdot 10\,\mathrm{cm²} \cdot \cos(0\,\mathrm{°})

Side B, with its numbers

500 µWb = 0.5 T 10 cm² \cos (0 °)

LaTeX

500\,\mathrm{µWb} = 0.5\,\mathrm{T} \cdot 10\,\mathrm{cm²} \cdot \cos(0\,\mathrm{°})
