Magnetic Circuit

qImage657d3eb226b37847e744f4f6

In a magnetic circuit, the force that tends to create magnetic flux is called MMF(magnetomotive force).

\(MMF=NI\)

where, N = No. of turns and I = Current

MMF is analogous to EMF (V) in an electrical circuit.

Also, \(MMF=ϕ\space \times S\)

where, ϕ = Flux and S = Reluctance

In an electrical circuit, Flux(ϕ) is analogous to current(I) whereas Reluctance (S) is analogous to Resistance (R).
