Tesla (unit) One tesla is equivalent to: One tesla is equal to 1 V·s/m. This can be shown by starting with the speed of light in vacuum, "c" = (εμ), and inserting the SI values and units for "c" (), the vacuum permittivity ε (), and the vacuum permeability μ (). Cancellation of numbers and units then produces this relation. For the relation to the units of the magnetising field (ampere per metre or Oersted), see the article on permeability. Tesla (unit) The tesla (symbol T) is a derived unit of the magnetic field strength (also, magnetic flux density) in the International
Magnetic particle inspection of force are perpendicular to the direction of the electric current, which may be either alternating current (AC) or some form of direct current (DC) (rectified AC). The presence of a surface or subsurface discontinuity in the material allows the magnetic flux to leak, since air cannot support as much magnetic field per unit volume as metals. To identify a leak, ferrous particles, either dry or in a wet suspension, are applied to a part. These are attracted to an area of flux leakage and form what is known as an indication, which is evaluated to determine its nature, cause,
