Analogies between Electric & Magnetic Circuits

Electric Magnetic Notes
V=Edl F=Hdl
nVn=0=Edl Hdl=Ni=nHl+Ni=0 Kirchoff's voltage law, Ampere's law
nIn=0=SJdS BdS=0 Kirchoff's current law, The B-field has to go around in a loop
JdS=I BdS=Φ Magnetic flux, Phi
R=VI =FΦ=NiΦ Reluctance
I=VR=GV or J=σE B=μH Assumes linearity - exceptions: Hysterisis loop, etc
