This experiment involves the measurement of the magnetic flux leaked from a rotating seamless steel tube with two machined notches. The signal measured is the radial component of the leaked field at a fixed point in space, as a function of the notch position, for four values of the liftoff and two notches. As the pipe tangential velocity was varied between 0.23 and 0.62 m/s, the sole observed effect was that of increasing the signal by a value that grows linearly with the velocity and is independent of the notch angular position.
