Magnetostatics



Magnetostatics is the branch of electromagnetics
dealing with the effects of electric charges in steady
motion (i.e, steady current or DC).
The fundamental law of magnetostatics is
Ampere’s law of force.
Ampere’s law of force is analogous to Coulomb’s
law in electrostatics.

Magnetostatics (Cont’d)

In magnetostatics, the magnetic field is
produced by steady currents. The
magnetostatic field does not allow for
 inductive
coupling between circuits
 coupling between electric and magnetic fields

Ampere’s Law of Force



Ampere’s law of force is the “law of action”
between current carrying circuits.
Ampere’s law of force gives the magnetic force
between two current carrying circuits in an
otherwise empty universe.
Ampere’s law of force involves complete circuits
since current must flow in closed loops.

Magnetic Flux Density



Ampere’s force law describes an “action at a
distance” analogous to Coulomb’s law.
In Coulomb’s law, it was useful to introduce the
concept of an electric field to describe the
interaction between the charges.
In Ampere’s law, we can define an appropriate
field that may be regarded as the means by
which currents exert force on each other.

Lorentz Force

If a point charge is moving in a region where both
electric and magnetic fields exist, then it experiences
a total force given by
F  F e  F m  q E  v  B 

The Lorentz force equation is useful for
determining the equation of motion for electrons in
electromagnetic deflection systems such as CRTs.

Types of Current Distributions



Line current density (current) - occurs for
infinitesimally thin filamentary bodies (i.e.,
wires of negligible diameter).
Surface current density (current per unit
width) - occurs when body is perfectly
conducting.
Volume current density (current per unit
cross sectional area) - most general.

Ampere’s Law and Gauss’s Law


Just as Gauss’s law follows from Coulomb’s law,
so Ampere’s circuital law follows from Ampere’s
force law.
Just as Gauss’s law can be used to derive the
electrostatic field from symmetric charge
distributions, so Ampere’s law can be used to
derive the magnetostatic field from symmetric
current distributions.

Applications of Ampere’s Law
(Cont’d)
In general, solutions to integral equations
must be obtained using numerical
techniques.
 However, for certain symmetric current
distributions closed form solutions to
Ampere’s law can be obtained.

27
Applications of Ampere’s Law
(Cont’d)
Closed form solution to Ampere’s law
relies on our ability to construct a suitable
family of Amperian paths.
 An Amperian path is a closed contour to
which the magnetic flux density is
tangential and over which equal to a
constant value.

28
Ampere’s Law in Differential
Form

Ampere’s law in differential form implies
that the B-field is conservative outside of
regions where current is flowing.

written as the curl of some vector potential
field.”

a vector field called the vector magnetic

Vector Magnetic Potential
(Cont’d)
In some cases, it is easier to evaluate the
vector magnetic potential and then use
B =  A, rather than to use the B-S law
to directly find B.
 In some ways, the vector magnetic
potential A is analogous to the scalar
electric potential V.

37
Vector Magnetic Potential
(Cont’d)
In classical physics, the vector magnetic
potential is viewed as an auxiliary function
with no physical meaning.
 However, there are phenomena in
quantum mechanics that suggest that the
vector magnetic potential is a real (i.e.,
measurable) field.

38
Divergence of B-Field

The B-field is solenoidal, i.e. the
divergence of the B-field is identically equal
to zero:
B  0
Physically, this means that magnetic
charges (monopoles) do not exist.
 A magnetic charge can be viewed as an
isolated magnetic pole.

39
Divergence of B-Field (Cont’d)


No matter how small
the magnetic is
divided, it always has
a north pole and a
south pole.
The elementary
source of magnetic
field is a magnetic
dipole.

Hence, the net magnetic flux leaving any

Fundamental Laws of
Magnetostatics


The integral forms of the fundamental laws are
more general because they apply over regions of
space. The differential forms are only valid at a
point.
From the integral forms of the fundamental laws
both the differential equations governing the
field within a medium and the boundary
conditions at the interface between two media
can be derived.
46
Boundary Conditions

Within a homogeneous
medium, there are no
abrupt changes in H or
B. However, at the
interface between two
different media (having
two different values of
, it is obvious that one
or both of these must
change abruptly.

Boundary Conditions (Cont’d)

The normal component of a solenoidal vector
field is continuous across a material interface:
B1n  B2 n

The tangential component of a conservative
vector field is continuous across a material
interface:
H 1t  H 2 t , J s  0
48
Boundary Conditions (Cont’d)
The tangential component of H is
continuous across a material interface,
unless a surface current exists at the
interface.
 When a surface current exists at the
interface, the BC becomes

aˆ n   H 1  H 2   J s
49
Boundary Conditions (Cont’d)

In a perfect conductor, both the electric
and magnetic fields must vanish in its
interior. Thus,
Bn  0
aˆ n  H  J s
• a surface current must
exist
• the magnetic field just
outside the perfect
conductor must be
tangential to it.
