Magnetic losses in Si-Fe alloys for avionic applications
Abstract
This paper presents an experimental analysis of the rotational power losses of the magnetic materials of transformers, motors and actuators used in avionic environment. A large frequency range is investigated using a suitable experimental test frame developed to measure the power losses for a circular magnetization. The results about different silicon iron alloys with different textures and thickness are considered and compared.
