[1] A circular iron ring has a mean circumference of 1.5m and a cross
sectional area of 0.01m2
. A saw cut of 4mm wide is made in the
ring Calculate the magnetizing current required to produce a flux of
0.8mWb in the air gap if a ring is wound with a coil of 175 turns.
Assume μr = 400, λ = 1.25
What is the current required if the leakage flux is neglected?
Ans: 3.156 A, 2.816 A

[2] A steel ring 10 cm mean radius and of circular cross-section 1 cm in
radius has an air gap of 1 mm length. It is wound uniformly with 500
turns of wire carrying current of 3 A. The air gap takes 60 % of the
total MMF. Neglecting magnetic leakage find the total reluctance
