How to convert milliampere-turns to kiloampere-turns
Magnetomotive force is current times number of turns; turn count is dimensionless. It is not magnetic flux, and a magnetic circuit model is needed to infer flux.
Use x for the value in mA·turn, b for the intermediate value in A·turn, and y for the result in kA·turn.
kA·turn = mA·turn × 0.001 ÷ 1000
Worked examples
10 mA·turn ≈ 0.00001 kA·turn
Step 1: (10 × 0.001) ≈ 0.01 A·turn.
Step 2: 0.01 ÷ 1000 ≈ 0.00001 kA·turn.20 mA·turn ≈ 0.00002 kA·turn
Step 1: (20 × 0.001) ≈ 0.02 A·turn.
Step 2: 0.02 ÷ 1000 ≈ 0.00002 kA·turn.
Results are rounded to 12 significant digits. Converting units does not increase the precision of the original measurement. Very large or small values outside JavaScript’s finite numeric range are rejected.
About Milliampere-turns
Milliampere-turns (mA·turn) measures magnetomotive force under the conventions above. The base value in A·turn is (x × 0.001), where x is the numerical value in mA·turn. Factors shown here are rounded for display; calculations use the stored factor.
About Kiloampere-turns
Kiloampere-turns (kA·turn) measures magnetomotive force under the conventions above. The base value in A·turn is (x × 1000), where x is the numerical value in kA·turn. Factors shown here are rounded for display; calculations use the stored factor.
