A generalized inverse Preisach dynamic hysteresis model of Fe-based amorphous magnetic materials

摘要

Fe-based amorphous magnetic materials are attracting more and more attentions in the application of low and medium frequency transformers due to their favorable properties of low core loss and high saturation magnetic flux density. Accurate modelling of their static and dynamic characteristics is required for analysis and design optimization of low and medium frequency transformers. In particular, for numerical analysis using the vectorial magnetic potential, an inverse magnetic hysteresis model is needed to predict the magnetic field strength from the magnetic flux density. When the excitation varies with time, the magnetic hysteresis model must be able to predict the dynamic hysteresis characteristics. This paper presents a generalized inverse Preisach dynamic hysteresis model for dynamic characterization of Fe-based magnetic materials. This model incorporates the reversible magnetization and magnetization dependent hysteresis, as well as all core loss components, including the hysteresis, eddy current, and excess losses. The proposed model can predict accurately the magnetic field strength from the magnetic flux density and hence accurate core losses. The predicted results are verified by experimental measurements.
