What Is This Tool?

This tool allows you to convert magnetomotive force measurements from the modern SI unit ampere turn (At) to the older CGS-EMU unit abampere turn (abAt). It facilitates comparison and translation between different electromagnetic unit systems.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the value in ampere turn (At) that you wish to convert
  • Select ampere turn as the source unit and abampere turn as the target unit
  • Click the convert button to get the equivalent value in abampere turn (abAt)
  • Use the provided examples to verify or understand the conversion

Key Features

  • Converts magnetomotive force values between ampere turn and abampere turn units
  • Supports understanding of electromagnetic unit systems: SI and CGS-EMU
  • Provides example conversions for clarity
  • Browser-based and easy to use without installation

Examples

  • 10 ampere turns [At] equals 1 abampere turn [abAt]
  • 50 ampere turns [At] equals 5 abampere turns [abAt]

Common Use Cases

  • Converting SI magnetomotive force values to CGS-EMU units found in historical electromagnetic literature
  • Comparing electromagnetic unit systems in educational settings
  • Supporting electromagnetic design work that references older magnetic circuit information

Tips & Best Practices

  • Always specify the unit system to avoid confusion when using abampere turns
  • Use this conversion tool to bridge older CGS-EMU measurement data with modern SI data
  • Consult the example conversions to confirm correct values
  • Remember that abampere turn is mainly for legacy and academic purposes

Limitations

  • Abampere turn is an outdated unit largely replaced by the SI ampere-turn
  • The CGS-EMU system differs subtly from SI, which may affect precision in calculations
  • Using abampere turns without clarity may cause confusion due to multiple electromagnetic unit systems

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the relationship between ampere turn and abampere turn?
One ampere turn (At) equals 0.1 abampere turn (abAt), meaning 10 ampere turns equal one abampere turn.

Why convert from ampere turn to abampere turn?
Converting helps relate modern SI magnetomotive force measurements to older CGS-EMU unit values found in historical data and academic materials.

Is abampere turn still commonly used in engineering?
No, the abampere turn is mostly obsolete and replaced by the ampere turn in contemporary engineering practices.

Key Terminology

Ampere turn (At)
An SI unit of magnetomotive force defined as the product of electric current (in amperes) and coil turns; quantifies the magnetic potential driving magnetic flux.
Abampere turn (abAt)
A CGS-EMU unit of magnetomotive force equal to the force from one abampere current flowing once around a single-turn coil; equals 10 ampere-turns in SI.
Magnetomotive force (MMF)
The magnetic potential that drives magnetic flux in magnetic circuits, measured by units such as ampere turn and abampere turn.
