Lines of magnetic flux are created when a current flows through a conductor. They can transport energy from one winding to another usually though a permeable core of some kind. The amount of flux per area is known as flux density. Transformer and inductor cores have finite flux densities. That is, they can only handle so much flux over…
In many cases introducing an air gap can be of great use. Often people/engineers may think that introducing an air gap increases the maximum flux density a core can handle. This is actually not true The core has a maximum flux density that is set by the material properties of that core, not by an…
