Eddy Currents in Conductors
Conductors, by definition, contain “free” electrons – i.e. the electrons are free to move around
inside the metal, but in fact are (weakly) bound to the metal by the work function ϕW of the metal
(SI units = eV (i.e. Joules)). Due to internal thermal energy associated with the metal being at
finite temperature, the “free” electrons can “evaporate” from the metal via thermionic emission
(from the high-side tail of the thermal energy distribution of the free electrons in a metal). Thus
thermionic emission of electrons is intimately related to black body /thermal radiation.

In the presence of a uniform applied external magnetic field Bext = Bo zˆ the free electrons in
metal move in circular orbits in a plane ⊥ Bext = Bo zˆ (ignoring/neglecting scattering effects in the
metal). The (mean/average) momentum of each electron is pe = me ve = qBo R where R =

motion as shown in the figure below, since the electron’s motion in z is unaffected by the presence of
the externally-applied magnetic field:

In this regime the path of free electrons is more complex due to the intrinsic scattering processes
extant in the metal, but the free electrons still travel (on average) in circular and/or helical paths.
Again, it is important to point out that static magnetic fields perform/carryout/ do NO work on
charged particles. Thus, for a constant (i.e. time-independent) magnetic-field, e.g. B = Bo zˆ , no
net energy is deposited and/or removed from the metal conductor by the constant magnetic field.
All a constant magnetic field B = Bo zˆ does is change/rearrange the nature of the six-dimensional
phase space associated with the free electrons ( re , pe ) = ( x, y, z , px , p y , pz ) by introducing
correlations in (x & y), and (px & py) due to the induced cyclotron-type motion of the free
electrons. The block of metal remains in thermal equilibrium.
In e.g. a sheet of copper metal, the free electron number density necu

copper metal sheet lies in the x–y plane, with Bext = Bo zˆ , then the net magnetic dipole moment is

An effective surface K e current flows (only) on the periphery of the metal sheet – due to
cancellation of the nearest neighbor induced dipole currents, as shown in the figure below:

Again, there are NO power losses here with a static magnetic field because B does NO work if
B = constant.

Then we see that Pmacro ( t ) = ε macro ( t ) I macro ( t ) = I macro

The (net) macroscopic current I macro ( t ) flows around periphery of material, as a surface
current K macro ( t ) , then I macro ( t ) = K macro ( t ) t⊥ , where t⊥ = perpendicular thickness of the
conducting material (see above figure).
Note that this surface current K macro ( t ) , which is created by an externally-created ∂B ( t ) ∂t
in the metal is associated with real power losses/real power dissipation because of the
acceleration/deceleration of free electrons in the metal (which is a time-irreversible process).
Such induced macroscopic currents in conductors/metals, caused by an induced macroscopic

are known as Eddy currents.

∂t
Eddy currents e.g. in transformers are harmful because they sap power from the transformer:
power input = (power output + Eddy current power)
thus: power output = (power input – Eddy current power)
Since Eddy current power winds up as heat, the transformer will (eventually) get hot –
possibly so hot it could be destroyed, if it has not been designed properly!
Eddy currents in metals can also be used beneficially e.g. to cook food by induction heating!!
⇒ Place food in metal container in proximity to intense alternating B -field. Eddy current
power losses (e.g. in transformers) can be dramatically reduced by laminating the transformer
core.

Since there are N lam laminations (now) making up the transformer core, then the total Eddy

Thus, we see that the Eddy current power loss in a transformer decreases as the square of the
number of laminations (compared to no laminations) (i.e. the Eddy current power loss decreases
as the square of A⊥Lam )
n.b. Ferrite cores used in transformers have high resistance (e.g. compared to iron cores) and
also have good magnetic permeability ⇒ the use of ferrite materials in transformer cores can
reduce Eddy current losses even further, by a factor of Riron R ferrite 1 !!! The use of ferrite
materials for transformer cores is most common/most useful for low-power/small-signal
applications.
Today, there exist various kinds of magnetic field sensors – e.g. which utilize magnetoresistive effects (B-field dependent resistance!) such as Giant Magneto-Resistance (GMR)
sensors, and/or electron Spin-Dependent Tunnelling (SDT) devices as well as Superconducting
Quantum Interference Devices (SQUIDs) which are also very sensitive to magnetic fields. These
devices are used in all kind of applications to detect small variations in magnetic fields.
One important application is Eddy current sensing – used for detecting structural flaws in
critical conducting materials. The state-of-the-art of Eddy current sensing is now such that
imaging capability with ~ 100 micron resolution has been achieved. Please see/read handout on
Eddy current sensing for more information.

Using Ampere’s law (in differential form): ∇ × B ( r , t ) = μo J Tot ( r , t ) , then for non-magnetic
media we see that J Tot ( r , t ) = J free ( r , t ) (only) whereas for magnetic media, in general
J Tot ( r , t ) = J free ( r , t ) + J Bound ( r , t ) .

The volume of integration v = entire volume occupied by the current density J Tot ( r , t ) . Any
integration volume larger than this is perfectly fine also, so integrating over all space for a
localized/finite volume current distribution J Tot ( r , t ) is also fine. Then for an infinite integration
volume v with accompanying infinite enclosing surface S, we see that the surface integral on the
RHS of the above equation vanishes, i.e. ∫ A ( r , t ) × B ( r , t ) ida = 0 .

Magnetic Forces:
Example: The Force on a Linear Magnetic Core Exerted by a Long Solenoid
Suppose we have a long solenoid of length and radius R (thus cross-sectional area A⊥ = π R 2 )
with NTot turns (thus n = NTot turns per unit length) carrying a steady free current I. What
happens when we insert a linear magnetic material (with constant magnetic permeability μ )
having the same length and radius into the bore of the long solenoid? Is there a force acting on it,
e.g. analogous to that associated with inserting a linear dielectric between the plates of a parallelplate capacitor?

The infinitesimal difference in the magnetic energy associated with moving the magnetic core
inward into the bore of the long solenoid an infinitesimal distance Δz (ignoring/neglecting any/all
end effects) is given by:
ΔWmag ( Δz ) = Wmag ( z + Δz ) − Wmag ( z )

2
( μ − μo ) ∫v H solin 2 ( r ) dτ
in
Where (using Ampere’s circuital law for the H -field for the long solenoid): H sol
( r ) = nI free zˆ
The infinitesimal change in the volume due to the infinitesimal displacement Δz is ΔV = A⊥ Δz .
∴ ΔWmag ( Δz )

( μ − μo ) n 2 I 2free A⊥ Δz
Then the net force acting on the magnetic core is:

( μ − μo ) > 0 (i.e. paramagnetic materials) we see that the direction of the
magnetic force acting on the magnetic core ( + ẑ ) is such that it wants to suck the magnetic core
Thus, as long as
into the bore of the long solenoid, analogous to what we saw in the case of a linear dielectric
partially inserted into the gap of a parallel-plate capacitor. Note however, for diamagnetic core,
since ( μdia − μo ) < 0 , a diamagnetic magnetic core is repelled from the bore of the long solenoid!
Electric and Magnetic Pressure:
We have seen for the electrostatics case, that the energy density uelect ( r ) (SI units of Joule/m3)
also has the same units as that for pressure, P ( r ) (Newtons/m2), and in fact the presence of an
energy density u ( r ) can/will exert a pressure P ( r ) on material if present at the point r .
