Magnetic Field Strength
Calculator
Chemistry Software Download
Magnetic Field Strength Calculator: Use this
calculator to determine the magnetic field at a specified distance
from the surface of a cylindrical or rectangular magnet.
- Diameter, Width, Thickness, Length, and Distance:
These are passive input fields marked with vertical lines ending
in front of each field. You must enter numbers in all these
three or four fields (rectangular magnets has four fields),
along with one of the dynamic fields, for the calculator to
function.
- Residual Induction (Br) and Field Strength:
These are dynamic input fields marked by horizontal lines in
front of each field. The red line is the default calculation
field. Once the passive fields Length, Width (or Diameter),
Thickness, and Distance contain numbers, entering or adjusting a
value in either the Residual Induction or Field Strength field
will automatically calculate and update the value in the other
dynamic field.

Inputs:
- Magnet Diameter (D) (Cylindrical Magnets):
Enter in the text field.
- Magnet Length (L) (Rectangular Magnets):
Enter in the text field.
- Magnet Width (W) (Rectangular Magnets):
Enter in the text field.
- Magnet Thickness (T) : Enter in the
text field.
- Distance (X) to the Measurement-Point (B):
Enter in the text field.
- Grade - Residual induction (Remanence Br):
Select from a list of strengths ranging from N35 to N52, or
manually enter a Residual Induction value. By manually inserting
a value in the related text-field, this will automatically
change the Grade selection to Manual.
- Field Strength (Flux Density) in the X-direction at
Point B: Displays the field strength.
Fig. Magnets: Shows dimensions such as Length
(L), Diameter (D), Width(W), Thickness(T) and distance(X) from the
surface to the measurement point (B) as demonstrated below.
Simplified Re-Calibration of
Gaussmeter and the Comparison of two different A1302
Hall-effect Probes
The solenoid setup, while accurate, can be
complex and cumbersome to use frequently for re-calibration of the
gaussmeter. A simpler, more portable setup can be created using a
magnet glued to a magnetically inert plate (such as plastic or
wood) with marked intervals, which can serve as a practical
reference for quick re-calibrations. After calibrating the
gaussmeter with the solenoid, use it to measure the magnetic field
at each marked distance (X) on the plate, and record the
corresponding magnetic field values (B) directly on the plate
above each distance marking for quick reference.
