In recent years, innovative magnetic materials have been introduced in the field of electrical machines. In the ambit of soft magnetic materials, laminated steels guarantee good robustness and high magnetic performance but, in some high-frequency applications, can be replaced by Soft Magnetic Composite (SMC) materials. SMC materials allow us to reduce the eddy currents and to design innovative 3D magnetic circuits. In general, SMCs are characterized at room temperature, but as electrical machines operate at high temperature (around 100 °C), an investigation analysis of the temperature effect has been carried out on these materials; in particular, three SMC samples with different binder percentages and process parameters have been considered for magnetic and energetic characterization.

Soft magnetic materials are key to the efficient operation of the next generation of power electronics and electrical machines (motors and generators). Many new materials have been introduced since Michael Faraday’s discovery of magnetic induction, when iron was the only option. However, as wide bandgap semiconductor devices become more common in both power electronics and motor controllers, there is an urgent need to further improve soft magnetic materials. These improvements will be necessary to realize the full potential in efficiency, size, weight, and power of high-frequency power electronics and high–rotational speed electrical machines. Here we provide an introduction to the field of soft magnetic materials and their implementation in power electronics and electrical machines. Additionally, we review the most promising choices available today and describe emerging approaches to create even better soft magnetic materials.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to present modelling of power losses dependences on temperature in soft magnetic materials exposed to non-sinusoidal flux waveforms and DC bias condition. Design/methodology/approach – Scaling theory allows the power loss density to be derived in the form of a general homogeneous function, which depends on the peak-to-peak of the magnetic inductance ΔB, frequency f, DC bias HDC and temperature T. The form of this function has been generated through the Maclaurin expansion with respect to scaled frequency, which suit very much for the Bertotti decomposition. The parameters of the model consist of expansion coefficients, scaling exponents, parameters of DC bias mapping, parameters of temperature factor and tuning exponents. Values of these model parameters were estimated on the basis of measured data of total power density losses. Findings – The main finding of the paper is a unified methodology for the derivation of a mathematical model which satisfactorily describes the total power density losses versus ΔB, f, HDC, and T in soft magnetic devices. Research limitations/implications – Still the derived method does not describe dependences of the power density loss on shape and size of considered sample. Practical implications – The most important achievement is of the practical use. The paper is useful for device designers. Originality/value – This paper presents the algorithm which enables us to calculate core losses while the temperature is changing. Moreover, this method is effective regardless of soft magnetic material type and the flux waveforms as well as the DC bias condition. The application of scaling theory in the description of energy losses in soft magnetic materials justifies that soft magnetic materials are scaling invariant systems.

Изучение эффективности использования электротехнических материалов является актуальной проблемой в области изготовления электрических машин. Одним из важнейших аспектов изготовления электрических машин является проектирование магнитной системы машины. В качестве магнитной системы используют магнитопроводы из различных магнитомягких материалов. Эти материалы отличаются магнитной проницаемостью и удельными магнитными потерями. Данные параметры материалов влияют на нагрев, размер, стоимость и эффективность электрической машины. В целях экономии экспериментальная оценка параметров магнитомягких материалов производится на заготовках различных форм и размеров, на специальных измерительных стендах, согласно международным энергетическим стандартам. В данной статье предлагается экспериментальная установка для лабораторных исследований магнитных свойств магнитомягких материалов, методом кольцевых заготовок, в соответствие со стандартом МЭК-60404-6. В составе установки используется только стандартное недорогое оборудование. Необходимый коэффициент формы магнитной индукциидостигается последовательной коррекциейнапряжения вторичной обмотки с помощью цифрового регулятора.

По итогам работы выявлено, что с помощью предлагаемойустановки могут производитьсяизмерения свойств магнитомягких материалов, в соответствие со стандартом МЭК-60404-6 с необходимой точностью. Предлагаемая установка может быть использована как в качестве учебного стенда, так и в качестве измерительной установки для идентификации свойств магнитомягких материалов при проектировании электрических машин. The study of the efficiency of using electrical materials is of great interest in the field of manufacturing electrical machines. One of the most important aspects of the manufacture of electrical machines is the design of the magnetic cores of the machine. Magnetic cores made of various magnetically soft materials are used as a magnetic system. These materials differ in magnetic permeability and specific magnetic losses. These material parameters affect the heating, size, cost and efficiency of electric machines. In order to reduce expenses, the experimental evaluation of the parameters of soft magnetic materials is carried out on samples of various shapes and sizes, on special experimental setups, in accordance with international electrotechnical standards. This article proposes an experimental setup for laboratory studies of the magnetic properties of soft magnetic materials by the method of ring specimens, in accordance with the IEC-60404-6 standard. The setup uses only standard inexpensive equipment. The required shape factor of the magnetic flux density is achieved by sequential correction of the secondary winding voltage using a digital regulator. The approach to the software implementation of the algorithm for sequential correction of the secondary winding voltage is described in the article. The proposed experimental setup was used to study the properties of a sample made of a soft magnetic composite powder material Somaloy 700-3p (800 MPa) and compare the results with the manufacturer's catalog data. Based on the results of the work, it was revealed that the proposed setup can be used to measure the properties of soft magnetic materials in accordance with the IEC-60404-6 standard with the required accuracy. The proposed experimental setup can be used both as a training stand and as a measuring installation for identifying the properties of soft magnetic materials in the design of electrical machines.
