It is possible to generate a magnetic field in a specimen either directly or<br />

indirectly. In direct magnetization, current is passed directly through the part.<br />

With the indirect approach, magnetization is induced by placing the part in a<br />

magnetic field that is generated by an adjacent current conductor or<br />

permanent magnet. This can be done, for example, by threading a conductor<br />

through a hollow part such as a tube or by passing an electric current through<br />

a cable wound around the part. Methods of magnetizing a part both directly<br />

and indirectly are illustrated schematically in Fig. 2.<br />
