Question:

will stainless steel heat up with induced magnetic hysteresis?

I know diamagnetic materials like copper, brass, aluminum will but I need to know how much heat for electromagnetic energy induced. Anybody know that?

Answer:

Hysteresis When a ferromagnetic material is magnetized in one direction, it will not relax back to zero magnetization when the imposed magnetizing field is removed. It must be driven back to zero by a field in the opposite direction. If an alternating magnetic field is applied to the material, its magnetization will trace out a loop called a hysteresis loop. The lack of retraceability of the magnetization curve is the property called hysteresis and it is related to the existence of magnetic domains in the material. Once the magnetic domains are reoriented, it takes some energy to turn them back again. This property of ferrromagnetic materials is useful as a magnetic memory. Some compositions of ferromagnetic materials will retain an imposed magnetization indefinitely and are useful as permanent magnets. The magnetic memory aspects of iron and chromium oxides make them useful in audio tape recording and for the magnetic storage of data on computer disks. Magnetic method has been used to evaluate the volume percentage of α' martensitic phase in austenitic stainless steels by measuring saturation magnetization, and it is said to be a candidate NDE method. However, nondestructive detection of saturation magnetization without high magnetic field is difficult. In the current work, we present a NDE method for evaluating the magnetic properties of strain induced α' martensitic phase. Low field hysteresis loops of an austenitic stainless steels type SUS 304 after cold rolling were measured by using a yoke sensor. The results show that the initial permeability μi and the relative coercive field Hcl calculated by low field hysteresis loop analysis keep monotonic relation with saturation magnetization and coercive force measured by VSM, respectively. By this method, it is possible to characterize the volume content and particle properties of α' martensitic phase in stainless steels. Answer: YES
IAW disallusioned. Move to the shoulder of the road, take your foot off the gas(but dont slam on the breaks) and just concentrating on steering.
