Consider the magnetic structure shown below:
a. Draw the analogous magnetic circuit, clearly showing the MMF, the flux, and the various reluctances.
b. Determine the current required to establish a flux of 2.4104 Wb in the magnetic circuit. Consider that the fringing effect increases the area of the air-gap by 10%.
c. Would a 100% increase in the magnetic permeability result in a corresponding decrease in the current required to establish the same flux as before? Justify your answer.
