Weber

Weber, (Wb), the SI unit of magnetic flux and of flux linkage. Named after the German physicist W. E. Weber. 1 Wb is equal to the magnetic flux produced by a uniform magnetic field of induction 1 tesla through an area of 1 m2 normal to the flux. Another definition: 1 Wb is equal to the magnetic flux whose decrease to zero carries a quantity of electricity of 1 C through the cross-section of the conductor of a circuit of resistance 1 Ω linked with it. 1 Wb=1 C*Ω=1 V*s=1 T*m2=108 maxwell.
