I have a question. What is the dimension of the active area of your probe tip? What orientation are you holding the probe when you are taking the data?
I looked at your plots of the single magnet, 9 mm I believe, and then a pair of magnets adjoining one another. The FEMM plots looked reasonable...
Nergus:
I have to agree with MJR2. I might add that you need to pay attention to rms versus peak reported values; I have found them confusing in the past. Also consider that a physical probe averages the flux density over the probe's area whereas an analysis program can calculate a theoretical...
MagMike:
Thanks for the suggestion. At the moment I don't have a question, but I'll take your suggestion for the future.
electricpete:
Thanks for your tip about the forum related to FEMM. I'll look at this.

Hi:
Does anyone know of a forum on magnetic analysis software such as integrated Engineering Software (IES)? I have searched around and can't find a forum that discusses issues on using this software.
Thanks
MagMike, your 3 T dipole sounds interesting. How is it done?
AlanSimpson: to make your field source adjustable, you would need current in a coil. 3 T is larger than saturation level of steels, for example, 1018 steel is around 1.8 T. Thus the coil structure could not benefit much from steel and...
