Results

The vectors of the magnetic field are shown below.

The magnetic field is directing from the north magnetic pole to the south magnetic pole.

 

The vectors of the magnetic flux density are shown below.

 

The vectors of the magnetic flux density at a section are shown below.

The magnetic flux can be seen as set in the direction tab .
