Vector Magnetic Properties of Electrical Steel Sheet Under DC-Biased Flux and Rotating Magnetic Fields of Varying Frequencies

Abstract

In this study, we explore the vector magnetic properties of the electrical steel sheet under dc-biased flux and rotating magnetic field of different frequencies. The corresponding iron loss and the rotational eddy current loss are discussed. An enhanced vector magnetic hysteresis model is proposed to describe the <inline-formula> <tex-math notation= LaTeX >$B$ </tex-math></inline-formula>–<inline-formula> <tex-math notation= LaTeX >$H$ </tex-math></inline-formula> behavior under these conditions. The accuracy of the proposed model is verified by the close agreement between the hysteresis loops calculated with the proposed model and those measured experimentally, as well as by the neglectable calculation error of the total iron loss.
