Fleming's rule

Japanese: フレミングの法則 - ふれみんぐのほうそく(英語表記)Fleming's rule
Fleming's rule

There is a law that describes the direction of the force that an electric current receives in a magnetic field (Fleming's left-hand rule, Figure A ), and a law that describes the direction of the induced electromotive force or induced current when a conductor is moved in a magnetic field (Fleming's right-hand rule, Figure B ). This law is intuitively expressed using the fingers of the hand, and is so named because it was devised by the British electrical engineer J. A. Fleming.

Fleming's left hand rule

If the thumb, index finger, and middle finger of your left hand are placed at right angles to each other, and the magnetic field B is oriented toward the index finger, and the current I is oriented toward the middle finger, then the force F that this current receives from the magnetic field will be oriented toward the thumb.

[Shigeo Yamaguchi]

Fleming's right hand rule

The thumb, index finger, and middle finger of your right hand are placed at right angles to each other. If the index finger is in the direction of the magnetic field B and the thumb is in the direction of the conductor moving V , then the direction of the induced current I flowing in the conductor is the direction of the middle finger.

When an electric charge moves in a magnetic field B , it receives a force F proportional to its speed V. Its direction is perpendicular to the plane determined by the speed V and magnetic field B , and is the direction in which a right-handed screw will advance if it is placed in this direction and turned in the direction of the magnetic field at a speed greater than the direction of the magnetic field. This force is called the Lorentz force ( Figure C ). Fleming's law is derived from this Lorentz force and is the special case in which the angle between the magnetic field and the speed is a right angle.

Fleming's law restates the Lorentz force relationship in a way that is easy for the practicing electrical engineer to understand.

Japanese:

磁界(磁場)の中で電流が受ける力の向きを表す法則(フレミング左手の法則、図A)と、磁界の中で導線を動かすとき、誘導起電力または誘導電流の向きを表す法則(フレミング右手の法則、図B)がある。手の指を使って直観的に表すもので、イギリスの電気工学者J・A・フレミングが考案したためこのようによばれる。

[山口重雄]

フレミング左手の法則

左手の親指、人差し指、中指を互いに直角にする。磁界Bは人差し指の向き、電流Iの向きは中指の向きとすると、この電流が磁界から受ける力Fの向きは親指の向きであるというもの。

[山口重雄]

フレミング右手の法則

右手の親指、人差し指、中指を互いに直角にする。人差し指を磁界Bの向き、親指を導線を動かす向きVとすると、導線の中に流れる誘導電流の向きIは中指の向きであるというもの。

 電荷が磁界Bの中で運動すると、その速さVに比例する力Fを受ける。その向きは速度Vと磁界Bが定める面に垂直で、右ねじをこの向きに置き速度より磁界の向きに回したとき右ねじが進む向きである。この力をローレンツの力(図C)という。フレミングの法則はこのローレンツ力から導かれるもので、磁界と速度のなす角が直角な特別の場合になっている。

 フレミングの法則は、ローレンツの力の関係を現場の電気技術者にも理解しやすいように表現し直したものである。
