Abstract: Electromagnetic systems such as AC machines have to support supply voltages containing a DC component
which induces both an increase of the total magnetic losses and the premature saturation of the magnetic core. In the
present paper, we present an approach for predicting the hysteresis loop of a magnetic material such as non oriented
FeSi 3% which is subjected to a DC bias. The measurements are carried out with a bench test built around an Epstein
frame. The material is excited with a damped sinusoidal flux density superimposed to a known continuous field. We
obtain superimposed asymmetrical hysteresis loops. The cycles are modeled via the Preisach Model (PM) [1], which
provides both a mathematical model for the B(H) curve and an analytical approach which identifies and predicts the
parameter behavior needed by the PM.
Key words: Hysteresis, Preisach Model, continuous field, magnetic material.
1. Introduction
The magnetic properties of soft material such as
Fesi 3% are very sensitive to both applied
mechanical and thermal stresses as well as the
external electromagnetic field. Magnetic materials
such as Fesi 3% are commonly used in the
manufacturing of electromagnetic devices which are
supplied by a sinusoidal electrical network. The flux
density is symmetrical, a very important property for
the good functioning of this type of device.
Many devices operating in the low- and mediumfrequency range, ranging from rotating machinery
(dc machines, permanent magnet motor) to magnetic
cores in electronic drives, are employed under
special supply conditions, which may include dc
bias and generally non-sinusoidal induction with
local minima. The pre- diction of the core losses
under such conditions, which are far removed from
the standard conditions required for conventional
magnetic testing of materials [1], may present
special difficulties, inherent to the general features
of hysteresis (e.g. Non-local memory effects) and
their evolution with the magnetizing frequency [2].
This work attempts to investigate the function b(h)
take account the continue component of the
excitation. The pm model is chosen because, on one
hand, it merely accounts for all the parameters
involved in process of magnetization of magnetic
materials such as saturation, minor cycles, etc, and
on the other hand, the simplicity of its
implementation.
