Abstract
Abstract Process and apparatus for measuring the hysteresis curves of magnetic materials when using a field coil and a potential coil of a size such that the ends of the latter coil project through the winding of the field coil. The process consists of integrating the output signal of the potential coil to obtain a first value, utilizing a voltage that is proportional to the field coil current to obtain a second value which is then added to the first value to obtain the field intensity H. In order to compensate for the presence of the legs of the potential coil, additional short windings of higher turn density are included in the field coil winding.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim
133 words
Field coil for use with a potential coil for the measurement of the inner field intensity H of magnetic materials, said potential coil having a medial portion disposed exteriorly of the field coil winding and a pair of terminal portions extending generally radially through said winding into the interior of the field coil at two axially spaced locations: the turn density of the field coil winding being substantially uniform along most of the length thereof; an axially extending space which is free of any winding being provided at said two locations to accommodate the passage through the winding of said portions of the potential coil; the turn density of a short axial length of said winding adjacent said winding-free spaces being greater than that of the remainder of the length of the winding.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
133 words
Field coil for use with a potential coil for the measurement of the inner field intensity H of magnetic materials, said potential coil having a medial portion disposed exteriorly of the field coil winding and a pair of terminal portions extending generally radially through said winding into the interior of the field coil at two axially spaced locations: the turn density of the field coil winding being substantially uniform along most of the length thereof; an axially extending space which is free of any winding being provided at said two locations to accommodate the passage through the winding of said portions of the potential coil; the turn density of a short axial length of said winding adjacent said winding-free spaces being greater than that of the remainder of the length of the winding.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
34 words
Field coil according to claim 1, wherein the overall turn density of the field coil winding is substantially the same as that of a similar coil having a uniformly spaced winding along its length.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
45 words
Field coil according to either one of claims 1 or 2, wherein a ring of electrically insulating material is concentrically disposed in said field coil at each of said two locations, said rings being provided with radial apertures for the legs of the potential coil.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
60 words
Field coil according to claim 3, wherein the ratio of the turn density D 1 of said short length of winding is determined by the equation ##EQU2## wherein D is the turn density of the remainder of the winding: l 1 is the length of the winding of increased turn density; l 2 is the length of the winding-free space.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
32 words
Field coil according to claim 4, wherein said winding of increased turn density comprises two short lengths of winding disposed at opposite ends of the winding-free space at each of said locations.
