How to Calculate and Solve for Hall Voltage | Electrical Properties

Last Updated on August 11, 2022

The image of hall voltage is shown below.

To compute for hall voltage, four essential parameters are needed and these parameters are Hall Coefficient (RH), Current (Ix), Magnetic Field (Bz) and Thickness (d).

The formula for calculating hall voltage:

VH = RHIxBz/d

Where:

VH = Hall Voltage
RH = Hall Coefficient
Ix = Current
Bz = Magnetic Field
d = Thickness

Let’s solve an example;
Find the hall voltage when the hall coefficient is 21, the current is 7, the magnetic field is 4 and the thickness is 2.

This implies that;

RH = Hall Coefficient = 21
Ix = Current = 7
Bz = Magnetic Field = 4
d = Thickness = 2

VH = RHIxBz/d
VH = (21)(7)(4)/2
VH = (588)/2
VH = 294

Therefore, the hall voltage is 294 V.

Calculating the Hall Coefficient when the Hall Voltage, the Current, the Magnetic Field and the Thickness is Given.

RH = VH x d / Ix x Bz

Where:

RH = Hall Coefficient
VH = Hall Voltage
Ix = Current
Bz = Magnetic Field
d = Thickness

Let’s solve an example;
Find the hall coefficient when the hall voltage is 10, the current is 8, the magnetic field is 4 and the thickness is 2.

This implies that;

VH = Hall Voltage = 10
Ix = Current = 8
Bz = Magnetic Field = 4
d = Thickness = 2

RH = VH x d / Ix x Bz
RH = 10 x 2 / 8 x 4
RH = 20 / 32
RH = 0.625

Therefore, the hall coefficient is 0.625.

Calculating the Current when the Hall Voltage, the Hall Coefficient, the Magnetic Field and the Thickness is Given.

Ix = VH x d / RH x Bz

Where:

Ix = Current
VH = Hall Voltage
RH = Hall Coefficient
Bz = Magnetic Field
d = Thickness

Let’s solve an example;
Find the current when the hall voltage is 24, the hall coefficient is 8, the magnetic field is 6 and the thickness is 4.

This implies that;

VH = Hall Voltage = 24
RH = Hall Coefficient = 8
Bz = Magnetic Field = 6
d = Thickness = 4

Ix = VH x d / RH x Bz
Ix = 24 x 4 / 8 x 6
Ix = 96 / 48
Ix = 2

Therefore, the current is 2.

Calculating the Magnetic Field when the Hall Voltage, the Hall Coefficient, the Current and the Thickness is Given.

Bz = VH x d / RH x Ix

Where:

Bz = Magnetic Field
VH = Hall Voltage
RH = Hall Coefficient
Ix = Current
d = Thickness

Let’s solve an example;
Find the magnetic field when the hall voltage is 40, the hall coefficient is 20, the current is 5 and the thickness is 2.

This implies that;

VH = Hall Voltage = 40
RH = Hall Coefficient = 20
Ix = Current = 5
d = Thickness = 2

Bz = VH x d / RH x Ix
Bz = 40 x 2 / 20 x 5
Bz = 80 / 100
Bz = 0.8

Therefore, the magnetic field is 0.8

Calculating the Thickness when the Hall Voltage, the Hall Coefficient, the Current and the Magnetic Field is Given.

d = RH x Ix x Bz / VH

Where:

d = Thickness
VH = Hall Voltage
RH = Hall Coefficient
Ix = Current
Bz = Magnetic Field

Let’s solve an example;
Find the thickness when the hall voltage is 22, the hall coefficient is 10, the current is 4 and the magnetic field is 6.

This implies that;

VH = Hall Voltage = 22
RH = Hall Coefficient = 10
Ix = Current = 4
Bz = Magnetic Field = 6

d = RH x Ix x Bz / VH
d = 10 x 4 x 6 / 22
d = 240 / 22
d = 10.90

Therefore, the thickness is 10.90.
