The potency of a magnetic field is measured in terms of Gauss. Accordingly, if we define Degaussing. We can say that degaussing means the procedure to diminish the potency of a magnetic field. Any ship made from steel or a material having magnetic susceptibility is like a big floating magnet with a very high magnetic […]
We all know that the Earth has its own magnetic field. And it is due to its composition and moreover due to its core. Our Earth’s core is composed of enormously heated metals in molten state under extreme high pressure. If you are an electrical guy, you must have read this before also that application […]
The Earth’s magnetic field is the cause of the ship’s permanent magnetic field. The process of constructing a ship in the Earth’s magnetic field generates an appreciable amount of permanent-magnetism in the floating metal structure. Whenever there is a movement of the floating metal structure, the magnetic lines of force also move with it. This […]
The potency of a magnetic field is measured in terms of Gauss. And therefore, by definition, degausse means to reduce/eliminate the strength of the magnetic field. Degaussing coils are used to reduce the effect of Earth magnetic field on the ship’s magnetic field. A magnetic mine is activated when the earth’s magnetic field is distorted […]
