SOLUTION There are three regions in this core. The top and bottom form one region, the left side forms a
second region, and the right side forms a third region. If we assume that the mean path length of the flux
is in the center of each leg of the core, and if we ignore spreading at the corners of the core, then the path
lengths are I, = 2(27.5 cm) = 55 cm, I, = 30 cm, and /, = 30 cm. The reluctances of these regions are:
