Magnet Geometry

The Magnet Geometry section prompts for the size of the magnet after choosing the magnet shape and material. The displayed fields vary based on the selected shape. Figure 4-2 shows an example input field for a bar type magnet and Table 4-2 lists the various inputs required for each magnet shape.
