Air Gap

Description

Model of an air gap in a magnetic core. It represents a linear relationship between the magnetic flux $\Phi$ and the magneto-motive force $\mathcal{F}$.

$$\frac{\Phi}{\mathcal{F}} = \frac{\mu_0 A}{l}$$

where $\mu_0$ = 4π × 10−7N∕A2 is the vaccum peremeability, $A$ is the cross-sectional area and $l$ the length of the flux path.
