Summary on Grant Application Form |
|
Rotational magnetisation is an important cause of energy loss in power transformers and motors. Recent worldwide research has identified important anomalies which need clarification to help develop and use material with lower rotational losses. It is proposed to investigate the two most important problems namely the cause of large differences in apparent loss when thermal or sensor measuring techniques are used, and secondly the cause of differences in losses when electrical steels are magnetised in different directions. To do this it is proposed to extend the range of existing measuring apparatus to higher flux densities and frequencies and to carry out parallel dynamic magnetic domain studies. The data analysis should lead to an improved understanding of rotational magnetisation phenomenon which will help in the development of energy efficient magnetic materials.
