What Is This Tool?
This tool converts magnetic flux measurements from microweber, a modern SI unit, to unit pole, an older non-SI unit formerly used in magnetism studies. It helps users interpret legacy data and relate it to contemporary measurements.
How to Use This Tool?
-
Enter the magnetic flux value measured in microweber (µWb)
-
Select microweber as the input unit and unit pole as the output unit
-
Click convert to see the equivalent value in unit pole
-
Use the results to relate modern measurements to historical magnetism data

-
Converts magnetic flux from microweber (µWb) to unit pole units
-
Supports understanding of historical magnetism measurements
-
Browser-based and easy to use
-
Facilitates archival and educational applications involving legacy units
Examples
-
2 µWb equals approximately 15.9155 unit pole
-
0.5 µWb equals approximately 3.9789 unit pole
Common Use Cases
-
Interpreting old magnetism research papers and experiments
-
Converting legacy laboratory measurements to SI units
-
Educational purposes explaining historical units in magnetostatics
-
Calibrating sensors using small magnetic flux values
Tips & Best Practices
-
Always verify whether the unit pole is suitable for your analysis due to its obsolete status
-
Prefer using webers or microweber for modern scientific accuracy
-
Use this converter when handling archival or historical magnetism data
-
Cross-check converted values when comparing with legacy documentation
Limitations
-
Unit pole is an outdated, non-SI unit no longer widely used
-
Conversion assumes historical context differs from contemporary magnetic flux definitions
-
Modern scientific work typically relies on webers or microweber units
-
Interpret results within the framework of legacy magnetism measurements
Frequently Asked Questions
-
What is a microweber?
-
A microweber (µWb) is a unit measuring small amounts of magnetic flux, equal to one millionth of a weber (Wb), used in precise magnetic measurements.
-
Why convert to unit pole if it is obsolete?
-
Conversion to unit pole is useful for interpreting and comparing older magnetism research and legacy data with modern units.
-
Is the unit pole used in modern magnetism?
-
No, unit pole is mostly obsolete and replaced by SI units like the weber in contemporary scientific practice.
Key Terminology
-
Microweber (µWb)
-
A metric unit of magnetic flux equal to one millionth of a weber, used for very small magnetic flux quantities.
-
Unit pole
-
A historical, non-SI unit representing magnetic pole strength, used mainly in older magnetism literature and now obsolete.
-
Magnetic flux
-
The total magnetic field passing through a given area, measured in units like webers or microweber.
