Losses analyses of laminated magnetic materials subject to non-sinusoidal magnetic flux are presented. Comparative analyses on typical Fe-Si oriented and non-oriented grains and nanocrystalline materials are carried out considering the influence of harmonic phase shift and associated B-H minor loops. Experimental measurements are performed to illustrate the B-H characteristics behaviours. A special experimental effort is given on nanocrystalline material, where Steinmetz coefficients are experimentally identified to analyse the performances of the improved Generalized Steinmetz Equation (iGSE) when phase displaced minor loops occur. It is proven that the iGSE is efficient in predicting nanocrystalline losses versus variable phase displaced harmonics.
