Flux pumping power storage devices, electric power transmission, electric motors (e.g. for vehicle propulsion, as in vactrains or maglev trains), magnetic levitation devices, and fault current limiters. Flux pumping Flux pumping is a method for magnetising superconductors to fields in excess of 15 teslas. The method can be applied to any type II superconductor and exploits a fundamental property of superconductors. That is their ability to support and maintain currents on the length scale of the superconductor. Conventional magnetic materials are magnetised on a molecular scale which means that superconductors can maintain a flux density orders of magnitude bigger than conventional materials.
Permeability (electromagnetism) example in a Newton–Raphson iterative solution scheme that computes the changing saturation of a magnetic circuit. Permeability is the inductance per unit length. In SI units, permeability is measured in henries per metre (H·m = J/(A·m) = N·A). The auxiliary magnetic field H has dimensions current per unit length and is measured in units of amperes per metre (A·m). The product "µ" H thus has dimensions inductance times current per unit area (H·A/m). But inductance is magnetic flux per unit current, so the product has dimensions magnetic flux per unit area, that is, magnetic flux density. This is the magnetic
