Electrical Parameters of Induction System for Internal Cylindrical Surfaces being Heating

In the article the combined influence of surface effect, proximity effect, ring effect and slot effect on active and self-inductive resistances of the inductor, placed inside the hollow cylindrical workpiece, are investigated. It had been shown that the combined influence of these effects forms a distribution of current over cross-section of the inductor tube. That current determines the values of active and self-inductive resistances of the inductor. There had been presented dependencies of relative coefficients of active and self-inductive resistances of the inductor and relative geometrical parameters of the system "inductor – hollow finite-sized workpiece", the gap between the inductor and the workpiece, and specific resistance of heated nonmagnetic workpiece in presence and absence of internal magnetic core.

Planar Hall Effect Ring Sensors for High Field-Sensitivity

Planar Hall effect sensor has been explored using multi-layer cross-shaped and bridge geometry. We present planar Hall effect in a ring-shaped geometry experimentally that shows progress of sensor sensitivity as well as output signals. Sensitivity improves about 170 times compare to cross-shaped geometry and about 1.4 times to bridge geometry in conventional measurement system. These values become 2.5 times larger at 20o measurement system. The presented ring geometry may take great potential in Planar Hall effect sensor applications.
