8、nitionsThe terms and symbols used in this testmethod are defined in Terminology A340.4.Significance and Use4.1 The permeability determined by this method is theimpedance permeability.Impedance permeability is the ratio ofthe peak value of flux density(Bmax)to the assumed peakmagnetic field strength(
9、Hz)without regard to phase.Ascompared to testing under sinusoidal flux(sinusoidal B)conditions,the permeabilities determined by this method arenumerically lower since,for a given test signal frequency,therate of flux change(dB/dt)is higher.4.2 This test method is suitable for impedance permeabilitym
10、easurements at very low magnetic inductions at powerfrequencies(50 to 60 Hz)to moderate inductions below thepoint of maximum permeability of the material(the knee of themagnetization curve)or until there is visible distortion of thecurrent waveform.The lower limit is a function of sample area,second
11、ary turns,and the sensitivity of the flux-reading voltme-ter used.At higher inductions,measurements of flux-generatedvoltages that are appreciably distorted mean that the flux hasappreciable harmonic frequency components.The upper limitis given by the availability of pure sinusoidal current,which is
12、a function of the power source.In addition,a large ratio(10)of the total series resistance of the primary circuit to theprimary coil impedance is required.With proper test apparatus,this test method is suitable for use at frequencies up to 1 MHz.4.3 This test method is suitable for design,specificat
