If you know the magnetic path length (l) and the area (A) through which the magnetic flux passes then reluctance =3D Mu(l)/A and suseptance is just the inverse=20 Justin , Intel -----Original Message----- From: si-list-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:si-list-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of D G Sent: Friday, November 07, 2003 11:09 AM To: si-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Cc: si-list-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [SI-LIST] Re: relative magnetic permeability of tungsten, molybdenum... proving hard to find I doubt the differences from 1 will affect any calculations. But just in case... I noticed that magnetic susceptibility is more commonly given for metals rather than permeability. Is there a way to calculate permeability from susceptibility?
