Frequently Asked Questions
-
Are volt second and tesla square meter the same unit?
-
Yes, both units represent magnetic flux and are numerically equal in the SI system, so 1 V*s equals exactly 1 T*m^2.
-
Why use volt second instead of tesla square meter?
-
Volt second is often used in contexts involving induced electromotive force and voltage over time, such as transformer core flux limits.
-
Can this conversion be used for all magnetic flux measurements?
-
It is suitable for ideal, uniform conditions but may not perfectly represent flux in scenarios with measurement errors or non-uniform fields.
Key Terminology
-
Volt second [V*s]
-
A unit of magnetic flux equivalent to one weber, representing the amount of magnetic field passing through an area and the induced emf over time.
-
Tesla square meter [T*m^2]
-
A derived unit of magnetic flux equal to the product of magnetic flux density (tesla) and area, numerically identical to the weber.
-
Magnetic flux
-
The measure of the total magnetic field passing through a surface, relevant in electromagnetic design and analysis.
