Q.What is “effective permeability μ_e”?

A. It is the permeability from the effective self-inductance in the magnetic core of a closed magnetic circuit (with a leakage flux that can be ignored) as shown in the following formulas.

or

Here,

• L : Effective self-inductance (H)
• N : Total number of turns
• ℓ : Magnetic path lengths (mm) of each of the same materials and same cross-sectional area parts
• A : Each of the cross-sectional areas (mm²)
• 
  : C1 = core constant (mm^–1)
• μ : Permeability of each material

Reference: Formula (1) is used for measurements and formula (2) is used for the dimensions of the various parts of the magnetic core and for calculations when permeability is added.
