What Is This Tool?

This converter helps transform magnetic flux measurements from the older cgs-emu unit called 'line' into the modern SI unit called weber (Wb). It is useful for interpreting historical data and updating magnetic flux values for current engineering applications.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the numeric value in lines you want to convert.
  • Select 'line' as the original unit and 'weber [Wb]' as the target unit.
  • Click the convert button to get the corresponding value in webers.
  • Use the result for further magnetic flux calculations or analysis.

Key Features

  • Converts magnetic flux values from line to weber using the precise conversion rate.
  • Supports legacy data interpretation and updates to modern SI units.
  • Easy to use, browser-based tool available anytime.
  • Facilitates comparison between historical and current magnetic flux measurements.

Examples

  • 5 lines equals 5 × 1e-8 Wb = 5e-8 Wb
  • 100 lines equals 100 × 1e-8 Wb = 1e-6 Wb

Common Use Cases

  • Analyzing and converting magnetic flux data from historical scientific literature referencing 'lines of force'.
  • Converting older measurements for comparison with modern instruments calibrated in SI units.
  • Updating magnetic circuit calculations from CGS units to modern SI standards.
  • Designing transformers, motors, and magnetic materials using consistent magnetic flux units.

Tips & Best Practices

  • Verify the source and context of legacy data before conversion to ensure correct interpretation.
  • Use this tool to bridge older experimental results with current electromagnetic designs.
  • Always confirm unit labels when handling magnetic flux to avoid confusion between lines, maxwells, and webers.
  • Keep in mind that the line is obsolete and cross-check values with SI units for practical engineering use.

Limitations

  • The line is an outdated unit rarely used in present-day measurements.
  • Historical data may lack precision, affecting conversion accuracy.
  • Modern instruments are typically not calibrated in lines, limiting direct verification.
  • Care is necessary to ensure correct conversion when interpreting older magnetic flux data.

Frequently Asked Questions

What exactly is a line in magnetic flux units?
A line is an obsolete cgs-emu unit of magnetic flux equal to one maxwell, representing the total magnetic flux through a surface.

Why convert from line to weber?
Converting from line to weber updates legacy magnetic flux measurements to the modern SI unit, enabling comparison and analysis with current data and instruments.

What is the conversion rate between line and weber?
One line equals 1 × 10⁻⁸ webers (Wb) in SI units.

Key Terminology

Line
