Определение дипольного магнитного момента по измерениям на незамкнутой поверхности

Abstract

Object and purpose of research. This paper discusses a quadrature-based method of dipole magnetic moment (DMM) calculation as per magnetic field measurement data for the open surface encompassing magnetic field sources. The purpose of the study was to modify this method for the case when measurement data are not available for certain areas on the surface (in other words, when the surface is not closed). Materials and methods. The paper describes magnetic dipole calculation methods, as well as the publications discuss-ing their efficiency. The method suggested in this paper basically substitutes the lacking magnetic field data by the values for pre-defined type of source, thus giving the correction coefficients needed to take into account the contribution of lacking areas. Main results. The paper suggests the methods for taking into account the missing parts of the open measurement surface in quadrature-based DMM calculation procedure. Calculation errors of DMM components for magnetic fields of various structure are estimated as per the solution for a series of test problems. Conclusion. The quadrature method offered in this study offers more accurate DMM calculation. The expressions given in the paper could be used to calculate DMM components as per magnetic field measurements for the generatrices of cylindrical surface, and the approach suggested in this study could be applied to arbitrary open surfaces.
