What to enter
| Input | Meaning and units |
|---|---|
| Uniform field (T) | Enter uniform field in T; use the same basis as the other measurements. |
| Area (m²) | Area in square metres. Convert both dimensions consistently before multiplying them. |
| Field-to-surface-normal angle (degree) | Enter field-to-surface-normal angle in degree; use the same basis as the other measurements. |
Understanding your result
Read Magnetic flux (Wb) in the units and model stated on this page. The formula flux=B*area*cos(angle*pi/180) defines the relationship; measurement accuracy and model applicability are separate from numerical precision.
Common mistakes
- Mixing input units or changing the physical meaning of a variable without changing the model.
Check your calculation
- Use the worked example as a known reference case, then change one input at a time and check the direction and units of the response.
