  • Enables analysis of historical and mixed CGS/SI magnetic data
  • Browser-based and easy to use for technical and scientific purposes

Examples

  • Convert 2 Maxwell/square meter to line/square inch to get 129032 line/square inch
  • Convert 0.5 Maxwell/square meter to line/square inch to get 32258 line/square inch

Common Use Cases

  • Translating magnetic flux density from older CGS literature into legacy units
  • Analyzing magnetic core and transformer data using historic measurement units
  • Interpreting geomagnetic or magnetogram records predating SI standard adoption
  • Examining specifications of magnetic recording technology from earlier eras

Tips & Best Practices

  • Verify the unit definitions when working with legacy magnetic flux density values
  • Use the conversion to aid understanding of mixed CGS and SI unit data sets
  • Recognize that line/square inch is an obsolete unit and modern SI units are preferred
  • Check conversion results in context of small flux density scales represented by maxwell/square meter

Limitations

  • Line/square inch is a non-SI obsolete unit and not commonly used in modern practice
  • Conversion depends on exact area unit equivalences; slight approximation errors may occur
  • Maxwell/square meter is suited for very small flux densities and may not reflect high-flux scenarios accurately
