A new hysteresis simulation method for interpreting the magnetic properties of non-oriented electrical steels

Cold-rolled silicon steel strip products are widely used as the main soft magnetic components in cores of electrical motors, generators, and transformers. In the case of rotating electrical machines, the so-called non-oriented electro-technical steels are normally applied. They are characterized by a similar behaviour to the induced magnetic field found in all sheet plane directions. The kind of soft magnetic alloys that defined herein not only possess an isotropy of electromagnetic properties, but also high mechanical strength; such alloys are called high-strength electro-technical (HSET) steels. These commercially produced HSET steels contain a high silicon content in the range of 3–4 wt.%. However, if the silicon content exceeds 3%, the machinability of Fe–Si alloys is dramatically reduced and they become much more brittle as a consequence. According to this, regular hot band brittle damage occurs during cold deformation at a high-speed tandem rolling mill. In accordance with these reasons, the production of thin high-strength silicon steel grades using the traditional methods of cold rolling deformation is extremely problematic and it is characterised by a high degree of steel sheet mechanical damage. In this scientific work, the effect of preheating hot-rolled strips on their mechanical workability improvement during tandem cold rolling was investigated. The results of this study indicate that the cold rolling of hot bands at elevated temperatures increases their resistance to brittle failure and mechanical plasticity. Moreover, the mathematical simulation clearly demonstrates that residual stress is distributed relatively homogeneously across the thickness of samples, which were cold rolled at 100 °C in contrast to the same ones deformed at room temperature.
