Magnetic loss in grain-oriented Fe–Si sheets under different harmonic excitation and high indication

This paper presents an improved loss calculation method that takes into account the effects of harmonics and skinning effects, thus extending the loss prediction of soft magnetic materials to a larger frequency and induction range. First, the first-order and second-order slew curves are concurrently fitted into a nonlinear Preisach model to determine the hysteresis loss. Then, integrating the effects of high frequency harmonics and high induction, the fixed-point technique based on the H–B magnetic intrinsic relationship is introduced into the finite element calculation in order to calculate the flux density distribution of the silicon steel sheet more accurately. Then, the classical loss at high flux density is further calculated more accurately. Finally, losses for soft magnetic materials in the 1 kHz range are computed under various harmonic excitations. This method is compared to the traditional method and the experimental results, and this method is closer to the experimental results.
