A Novel Dynamic Hysteresis Model for Grain-Oriented Electrical Steels Based on Magnetic Domain Theory

Abstract

A novel approach is adopted to model the hysteresis phenomenon of grain-oriented electrical steels (GOESs), by incorporating a variation of the domain patterns associated with ferromagnetic materials during magnetization and demagnetization. The ensuing model treats the anisotropic and isotropic components separately, together with the coupling effect of the excitation field. Its ability to replicate experimentally obtained dynamic hysteresis loops (DHLs) for Epstein size laminations of GO 3% SiFe electrical steels, for different magnetizing frequencies and peak flux densities, and facilitate the straightforward evaluation of the energy loss in GOESs is demonstrated for the case of controlled sinusoidal magnetic induction. Close agreement is found to exist between the predicted energy loss and corresponding bulk measurements, with the maximum difference being less than 2%.
