This value of flux density \u2018ob<\/em>\u2019 retained by the magnetic material is called residual magnetism and the power of retaining this residual magnetism is called retentivity of the material. To demagnetise the magnetic ring, the magnetising force H <\/em>is reversed by reversing the direction of flow of current in the solenoid. This is achieved by changing the position of double pole, double throw switch (i.e., position \u20182\u2019). When H<\/em> is increased in reverse direction, the flux density starts decreasing and becomes zero and curve follows the path bc. Thus, residual magnetism of the magnetic material is removed by applying magnetising force oc<\/em> in opposite direction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5.11.2  Coercive Force<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

This value of magnetising force oc<\/em> required to remove the residual magnetism is called coercive force. To complete the loop, the magnetising force H<\/em> is increased further in reverse direction till saturation reaches (point \u2018d<\/em>\u2019) and the curve follows the path cd<\/em>. Again H<\/em> is reduced to zero and the curve follows the path de<\/em>, where oe<\/em> represents the residual magnetism. Then, H<\/em> is increased in the positive direction by changing the position of reversible switch to position \u20181\u2019 and increasing the flow of current in the solenoid. The curve follows the path of efa<\/em> and the loop is completed. Again of<\/em> is the magnetising force utilised to remove the residual magnetism oe<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hence, cf<\/em> is the total coercive force required in one cycle of magnetisation to remove the residual magnetism. Since the meaning of hysteresis is lagging behind, and in this case, flux density B<\/em> always lags behind the magnetising force, H<\/em>. Therefore, loop (abcdefa<\/em>) so obtained is called hysteresis loop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5.12  HYSTERESIS LOSS<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

When a magnetising force is applied, the magnetic material is magnetised and the molecular magnets are lined up in a particular direction. However, when the magnetising force in a magnetic material is reversed, the internal friction of the molecular magnets opposes the reversal of magnetism, resulting in hysteresis. To overcome this internal friction of the molecular magnets (or to remove the residual magnetism), a part of the magnetising force is used. The work done by the magnetising force against this internal friction of molecular magnets produces heat. This energy, which is wasted in the form of heat due to hysteresis, is called hysteresis loss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hysteresis loss occurs in all the magnetic parts of electrical machines where there is reversal of magnetisation. This loss results in wastage of energy in the form of heat. Consequently, it increases the temperature of the machine, which is undesirable. Therefore, a suitable magnetic material is selected for the construction of such parts, for example, silicon steel is most suitable in which hysteresis loss is minimum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5.13  IMPORTANCE OF HYSTERESIS LOOP<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

The shape and size of hysteresis loop of a magnetic material largely depend upon its nature. For a particular location, the choice of the magnetic material depends upon the shape and size (i.e.,<\/a>area) of its hysteresis loop. The hysteresis loops of some of the common magnetic materials are shown in Figure 5.25<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Hard steel:<\/strong>\u00a0The hysteresis loop for hard steel is shown in\u00a0Figure 5.25 (a).\u00a0This loop has larger area that indicates that this material will have more hysteresis loss. Therefore, it is never used for the construction of machine parts. However, its loopshows that the material has high retentivity and coercivity. Therefore, it is more suitable for making permanent magnets.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Silicon steel:<\/strong>\u00a0The hysteresis loop for silicon steel is shown in\u00a0Figure 5.25 (b). This loop has the smallest area that indicates that this material will have small hysteresis loss. Therefore, it is most suitable for the construction of those parts of electrical machines in which reversal of magnetisation is very quick, for example, armature of DC machines, transformer core, starter of induction motors, etc.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Wrought iron:<\/strong>\u00a0Figure 5.25 (c)\u00a0shows the hysteresis loop for wrought iron. This loop shows that this material has fairly good residual magnetism and coercivity. Therefore, it is best suited for making cores of electromagnets.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      5.14  ELECTROMAGNETIC INDUCTION<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

      The phenomenon by which an emf is induced in a circuit (and hence current flows when the circuit is closed) when magnetic flux linking with it changes is called electromagnetic induction.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

      For illustration, consider a coil having a large number of turns to which galvanometer is connected. When a permanent bar magnet is taken nearer to the coil or away from the coil, as shown in\u00a0Figure. 5.26 (a), a deflection occurs in the needle of the galvanometer. Although, the deflection in the needle is opposite in two cases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      On the other hand, if the bar magnet is kept stationary and the coil is brought near to the magnet or away from the magnet, as shown in\u00a0Figure 5.26 (b), again a deflection occurs in the needle of the galvanometer. The deflection in the needle is opposite in the two cases. However, if both the magnet and the coil are kept stationary, no matter how much flux is linking with the coil, there is no deflection in the galvanometer needle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      The following points are worth noting:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \n
      1. The deflection in the galvanometer needle shows that emf is induced in the coil. This condition occurs only when flux linking with the circuit changes, that is, either magnet or coil is in motion.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      2. The direction of induced emf in the coil depends upon the direction of magnetic field and the direction of motion of coil.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
