Special precautions to take in measuring coercivities below 40 A/m and above 160 kA/m are given in Annex A. 2 Normative references The fo

20、d the following apply. 3.1 coercivity HcJmagnetic field strength required to reduce the magnetic polarization to zero in a magnetic specimen which has previously been magnetized to saturation Note 1 to entry: The coercivities HcBand HcJare respectively discriminated depending on the hysteresis loop
21、being defined in the B = f(H), or J = f(H) system (see Figure 1). It can be shown that, for materials of high-incremental permeability in the region B = 0, the difference between the intrinsic coercivity HcJand the coercivity HcBis negligible since: =BHHH0cJcB1 where HcBis the induction coercivity,
22、in amperes per metre; HcJis the polarization coercivity, in amperes per metre; B is the incremental change in magnetic flux density, in tesla (for B = 0); H is the corresponding change in magnetic field strength, in amperes per metre; 0is the magnetic constant = 4 x 10-7H/m (henrys per metre).

23、 10330:2015EN 10330:2015 (E) 5 4 Principle If a magnetic specimen is placed in a uniform magnetic field then it will distort this magnetic field unless no flux (additional to that previously carried by the air space it now occupies) enters or emerges from it. This condition represents a state of com
24、plete demagnetization, which occurs when a demagnetizing coercive magnetic field strength is applied to the specimen such that the magnetic polarization is zero. A magnetic flux detector allows detection of the condition of no distortion of a uniform magnetic field by the specimen and provides the m
25、eans for determining the coercive field strength. The method is firstly to magnetize the specimen to saturation, and then reduce the magnetizing field to zero before applying a demagnetizing field until no field distortion due to the specimen is apparent. The applied magnetic field strength required
26、 to achieve this condition is measured and defined as the coercivity of that specimen. For this measurement, the specimen is placed in an open magnetic circuit at the centre of a solenoid. The detector may be placed: a) close to the end of the specimen (method A, Figure 2); or b) outside the solenoi
27、d (method B, Figure 3). 5 Test specimen The shape and the dimensions of the specimen can be varied provided that they meet the following conditions: a) the specimen can be placed inside the solenoid so that its major axis is coincident with the axis of the solenoid; b) the specimen shall have a gene
28、rally elongated shape so that its self-demagnetizing factor is such that the specimen can be saturated and the shape effects do not produce a significant error in coercivity. (For example, in the case of cylindrical test specimens, it is recommended to have a ratio of length to diameter greater than
29、 5:1). 6 Measurement 6.1 Magnetization The test specimen is magnetized to saturation in either: a) the solenoid of the coercivity measuring device, or b) a separate device which can be, for example, a system with a permanent magnet or an electromagnet, or a pulsed magnetizing coil. Saturation is con
30、sidered to be achieved when an increase of 50 % in the magnetizing field strength gives an increase in the coercive field strength of less than 1 %. For magnetic materials having a low coercivity and a high electrical conductivity, the application of the magnetizing field shall be made smoothly with
31、out interruption; the duration of the saturation field shall be long enough to ensure complete penetration of the material. (Depending on the magnetic permeability, electrical conductivity and thickness of the material, this duration will usually be between 2 s and 20 s). See also item a) in A.2. NO
32、TE These materials also require the magnetizing field to be reduced to zero smoothly and without interruption to avoid partial demagnetization of the test specimen before the demagnetizing field is applied. If this procedure is not followed, the BS EN 10330:2015EN 10330:2015 (E) 6 coercivity result
33、may be lower than the true value. (Coercivity measurements may be repeated with increasing times for reducing the magnetizing field until a maximum value of coercivity is obtained. A time of up to 60 s may be required for very low coercivity materials.). See 1. 6.2 Measuring devices 6.2.1 General Tw
34、o methods can be used for the detection of zero magnetic polarization of the test specimen during the demagnetization: 6.2.2 Method A This method is based on the use of: a) either an axially vibrating search coil placed near the end of the test specimen (Figure 2). The point at which zero alternatin
35、g voltage, induced in the search coil by the polarization of the test specimen, is detected (e.g. on an oscilloscope); or b) a magnetic flux sensing probe (e.g. Hall or fluxgate probe) placed near the test specimen with its measurement axis normal to the axis of the solenoid (Figure 2). The probe sh
36、all be positioned off the axis of the solenoid to give good sensitivity. 6.2.3 Method B This method is based on the use of two differential magnetic flux sensing probes (e.g. Hall or fluxgate probes) placed outside the solenoid (Figure 3). By this differential method, the influence of uniform extern
37、al magnetic fields is amply compensated. 6.3 Determination of coercivity The solenoid, in which the test specimen is placed, shall be connected to a d.c. supply. The demagnetizing current through the solenoid shall be increased continuously and slowly to the point at which zero polarization of the t
38、est specimen is detected. The value of this demagnetizing current shall be measured with an ammeter of accuracy class 0.5 or by means of a digital voltmeter connected across a standard resistor (Figure 4) giving an equivalent accuracy. The magnetic field strength in the solenoid over the volume of t
39、he sample shall not vary by more than 0,5 %. The current shall be measured for each of the two directions of the demagnetizing field of the solenoid. The value of the coercivity shall be calculated from the relationship: HcJ= k I where HcJis the coercivity, in amperes per metre; I is the mean value
40、of the two currents of opposite polarity, in amperes; K is the magnetic field strength to current ratio for the solenoid, in reciprocal metre. BS EN 10330:2015EN 10330:2015 (E) 7 When method A is used, the measurement shall be made for each end of the specimen, the value of the coercivity being take
41、n as the mean of the two measurements. For materials having a coercivity greater than 500 A/m, it is not necessary to make measurements for two directions of the magnetic field. NOTE Method A is a localized measurement whereas method B is an integrated measurement. Therefore, the results may not be
42、the same for an inhomogeneous test specimen. 6.4 Reproducibility Provided the foregoing procedures are carried out and the material has a uniform magnetic polarization, the reproducibility (agreement between different laboratories) of the determination of the coercivity normally expected is less tha
43、n or equal to 5 % for coercivities less than 40 A/m and 2 % for coercivities greater than 40 A/m. However, this reproducibility may be affected by non-uniform properties and shape of the test specimen. 7 Test report The test report shall contain, as necessary: a) type and condition of the material;
44、b) the shape and dimensions of the test specimen; c) the method of magnetization to saturation; d) the measuring method and device used; e) the calculated value of the coercivity, HcJ; f) the test temperature.

47、 40 A/m For materials having a coercivity below 40 A/m, the following precautions shall be observed: a) the measuring apparatus shall be set up in an environment free from strong magnetic fields and remote from masses of magnetic material; b) the ambient magnetic field shall be compensated for or th
48、e equipment shielded to reduce the value of the field to below 0,5 A/m; c) care shall be taken to avoid the introduction of internal mechanical stresses during and after preparation of the test specimens; d) when using a Hall probe to measure coercivities below 10 A/m, it will be necessary to check
49、that the magnetic field due to the Hall probe bias current does not affect the measurement. A.2 Coercivities above 160 kA/m For materials having a coercivity above 160 kA/m, the following precautions shall be observed: a) specimens of materials having high coercivities often have a dimensional ratio (length to width) of less than 5 to 1. In these cases, it may be possible to facilitate magnetization to saturation by means of extension pieces of similar material placed at both ends of the specimen during magnetization; b) care shall be taken
