Tips & Best Practices

  • Double-check unit compatibility when working with legacy or imperial magnetic data
  • Remember that the SI tesla is preferred for modern magnetic flux density measurements
  • Use this conversion for specialized or historical data analysis tasks
  • Apply the exact conversion formula 1 Wb/in^2 = 100,000,000 Mx/in^2 for accuracy

Limitations

  • Units involve non-SI quantities with different magnitudes, requiring care in scale
  • Primarily suitable for legacy or specialized applications rather than modern measurements
  • Precision may vary due to differing unit definitions and measurement contexts

Frequently Asked Questions

What does one weber per square inch represent?
One weber per square inch (Wb/in^2) is a non-SI unit of magnetic flux density representing one weber of magnetic flux distributed over an area of one square inch.

How is maxwell per square inch related to the weber?
One maxwell per square inch equals 10^-8 weber per square inch, reflecting a smaller unit of magnetic flux density commonly used in legacy CGS systems.

Why convert between Wb/in^2 and Mx/in^2?
Conversions are needed for interpreting and analyzing magnetic flux density data recorded in different unit systems, especially legacy data or imperial-area measurements.

Key Terminology

Weber per square inch (Wb/in^2)
A unit of magnetic flux density equal to one weber of flux distributed over one square inch of area, used in imperial and legacy systems.
Maxwell per square inch (Mx/in^2)
A unit of magnetic flux density given by maxwells of magnetic flux per square inch; 1 Mx = 10^-8 weber.
Magnetic flux density
A measure of the strength and concentration of magnetic flux per unit area.
