Paper title: MODELING OF NONLINEAR FERROMAGNETIC CORES
Author(s): LUCIAN MANDACHE, DUMITRU TOPAN, KAMAL AL-HADDAD,
Abstract: The paper presents an advanced modeling technique of ferromagnetic cores, entirely
based on Maxwell’s theory. Our models answer to common modern applications of
electrical engineering. They use nonlinear electrical equivalent diagrams, easy to built
according to the core geometry (including air-gaps) and ferromagnetic material
characteristics. The core model is compatible to be included in the entire circuit model,
being suitable for the time-domain analysis. The circuit analysis provides complete
information on any working parameters of the magnetic core (as the main and leakage
time-domain magnetic fluxes, position and shape of minor magnetizing loops,
instantaneous and mean eddy current losses, dynamic permeabilities, dynamic
inductances, etc.), as well as of other parts of the analyzed circuit.
