Soft magnetic materials are those materials that are easily magnetised and demagnetised. They typically have intrinsic coercivity less than 1000 Am-1. They are used primarily to enhance and/or channel the flux produced by an electric current. The main parameter, often used as a figure of merit for soft magnetic materials, is the relative permeability (µr, where µr = B/ µoH), which is a measure of how readily the material responds to the applied magnetic field. The other main parameters of interest are the coercivity, the saturation magnetisation and the electrical conductivity.
Commonly used transformer cores are generally made of silicon steel sheets. Silicon steel is a kind of steel with silicon (silicon is also called silicon), and its silicon content is 0.8 ~ 4.8%. The reason why silicon steel is used as the iron core of transformer is that silicon steel itself is a magnetic material with strong magnetic conductivity. In the energized coil, it can produce large magnetic induction intensity, which can reduce the volume of transformer.
This is because the sheet iron core can reduce another iron loss – “eddy current loss”. When the transformer works, there is alternating current in the coil, and the magnetic flux generated by it is of course alternating. This changing magnetic flux produces an induced current in the iron core. The induced current generated in the iron core flows in a ring in a plane perpendicular to the magnetic flux direction, so it is called eddy current. Eddy current losses also heat the core. In order to reduce the eddy current loss, the iron core of the transformer is stacked with silicon steel sheets insulated from each other, so that the eddy current passes through a small section in the narrow and long circuit, so as to increase the resistance on the eddy current path; At the same time, the silicon in silicon steel increases the resistivity of the material and reduces the eddy current. rolled silicon steel sheet is selected. It is cut into long pieces according to the size of the required iron core, and then overlapped into “day” shape or “mouth” shape. In principle, in order to reduce eddy current, the thinner the silicon steel sheet, the narrower the spliced strip, and the better the effect. This not only reduces the eddy current loss and temperature rise, but also saves the material of silicon steel sheet. But in fact, when making silicon steel sheet iron core. Not only from the above favorable factors, because making the iron core in that way will greatly increase the working hours and reduce the effective section of the iron core. Therefore, when making transformer iron core with silicon steel sheet, we should start from the specific situation, weigh the advantages and disadvantages and choose the best size.
Silicon steel is a traditional magnetic material mainly for 50Hz to 1000Hz electronic and electrical applications. The toroidal core is one of the main products of Transmart Industrial. Our silicon steel core series has many styles to meet the diversified needs of customers. We manufacture various type of cores in silicon steels, such as Current Sensor Cores, silicon steel transformer core, Instrument Transformer Cores, Torodal cores, C-cores, Unicore etc. Transmart Industrial carries out strict quality monitoring and cost control on each production link of toroidal core, from raw material purchase, production and processing and finished product delivery to packaging and transportation. This effectively ensures the product has better quality and more favorable price than other products in the industry. Read extra info at transmart.net.
It is worth noting that Japan is vigorously developing FEMB amorphous alloy and nanocrystalline alloy. Its BS can reach 1.7 ~ 1.8T, and the loss is less than 50% of the existing FeSiB Amorphous Alloy. If it is used in power frequency electronic transformer, the working magnetic flux density can reach more than 1.5T, while the loss is only 10% ~ 15% of silicon steel power frequency transformer, it will be a more powerful competitor of silicon steel power frequency transformer. Japan is expected to successfully trial produce FEMB amorphous alloy power frequency transformer and put it into production in 2005.
After surface insulation treatment, the magnetic core is evenly mixed with the binder, pressed and annealed. There are basically three ways to obtain nanocrystalline powder: amorphous strip crushing after annealing and crystallization, mechanical alloying and molten alloy atomization. At present, mechanical alloying is still in the laboratory research stage. A few companies produce amorphous strip crystallization in small quantities in China, but it is unable to expand the market due to cost reasons. Compared with other methods, molten alloy atomization method has high efficiency and low cost. Its disadvantage is that the amorphous content of the powder is low and the loss is high.
