1. A quick reminder of electromagnetism

A good knowledge of electromagnetism, the part of physics that deals with the relationship between electrical and magnetic phenomena, is essential for understanding how magnetic circuits work.

We'll quickly review the necessary laws of electromagnetism.

For a more detailed presentation of the laws of electromagnetism, please refer to the Electromagnetism folder [D 1 020] .

1.1 Maxwell's equations

There are 4 Maxwell's equations linking the various electrical and magnetic quantities, which translate local macroscopic properties (table 1...
