Linear and nonlinear Cauer-network models for nanocrystalline inductor cores are developed and used for circuit simulations of common-mode chokes for inverter-based drive systems of several hundred kW. Experimental measurements of the chokes' performance in a high-power test bed are compared to the model results. When the model is based on measured characteristics of the material used, the match to measured behavior is good. Damping inherent in the material characteristic is adequate, such that additional damping is not useful. The primary limitation to accurate prediction of loss in practice is the tolerance on specifications of core characteristics, particularly at high frequency where limits are not specified.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
