What Is This Tool?

This tool helps convert magnetic field strength between ampere turn per meter (At/m) and kiloampere per meter (kA/m). It allows users to express magnetizing force in appropriate units depending on the application.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the magnetic field strength value in ampere turn per meter (At/m).
  • Select the target unit kiloampere per meter (kA/m).
  • Click convert to obtain the equivalent value.

Key Features

  • Converts between At/m and kA/m units of magnetic field strength.
  • Browser-based, easy to use with clear input and output.
  • Supports magnetic design and testing applications.

Examples

  • 500 At/m converts to 0.5 kA/m by multiplying 500 by 0.001.
  • 2000 At/m converts to 2 kA/m by multiplying 2000 by 0.001.

Common Use Cases

  • Determining magnetizing force in electromagnet and solenoid designs.
  • Analyzing magnetic circuits and transformer cores for magnetomotive force per length.
  • Evaluating coercivity and operating points in permanent magnets and soft magnetic materials.
  • Characterizing applied magnetizing fields in magnetic testing setups.

Tips & Best Practices

  • Ensure unit consistency when mixing At/m, A/m, and kA/m in calculations.
  • Use kiloampere per meter units for clarity in high-field strength scenarios.
  • Apply conversion carefully only for magnetizing field strength, not for flux density.

Limitations

  • Conversion applies only to magnetizing field strength, not magnetic flux density or other quantities.
  • At/m and A/m are numerically the same, so unit consistency is important to avoid errors.
  • Mixing different measurement systems requires caution to maintain accuracy.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does ampere turn per meter (At/m) measure?
It measures magnetizing force or magnetic field strength as the number of ampere-turns per unit length of a magnetic path.

How is kiloampere per meter (kA/m) related to ampere per meter (A/m)?
One kiloampere per meter is equal to 1,000 amperes per meter, representing magnetic field strength scaled by a thousand.

Can I use this conversion for magnetic flux density?
No, this conversion applies only to magnetizing field strength, not magnetic flux density or related quantities.

Key Terminology

Ampere turn per meter (At/m)
A unit measuring magnetizing force as the number of coil turns multiplied by current per meter of magnetic length.
Kiloampere per meter (kA/m)
A derived SI unit of magnetic field strength equal to 1,000 amperes per meter, expressing magnetizing force on a larger scale.
Magnetizing field strength (H)
The magnetic field intensity produced by currents or magnetized materials, used in magnetic circuit analysis.
