An Anisotropic Model for Magnetostriction and Magnetization Computing for Noise Generation in Electric Devices

Abstract

During the manufacturing process and use of ferromagnetic sheets, operations such as rolling, cutting, and tightening induce anisotropy that changes the material’s behavior. Consequently for more accuracy in magnetization and magnetostriction calculations in electric devices such as transformers, anisotropic effects should be considered. In the following sections, we give an overview of a macroscopic model which takes into account the magnetic and magnetoelastic anisotropy of the material for both magnetization and magnetostriction computing. Firstly, a comparison between the model results and measurements from a Single Sheet Tester (SST) and values will be shown. Secondly, the model is integrated in a finite elements code to predict magnetostrictive deformation of an in-house test bench which is a stack of 40 sheets glued together by the Vacuum-Pressure Impregnation (VPI) method. Measurements on the test bench and Finite Elements results are presented.

An Hourglass-Shaped Wireless and Passive Magnetoelastic Sensor with an Improved Frequency Sensitivity for Remote Strain Measurements

“…The overall relationship between the resonant frequency and the ratio was almost an incremental function. When d1/d2 was equal to 1, the resonant frequency was 76.05 kHz at this time, which agreed with the studies in [27,28] When the ratio was 2, the resonant frequency was 80.53 kHz, which was higher than that occurred at the ratio of 1. When the ratios were 3, 4, and 5, the resonant frequencies were 85.12 kHz, 91.57 kHz, and 97.83 kHz respectively.…”

Reduction of Power Transformer Core Noise Generation Due to Magnetostriction-Induced Deformations Using Fully Coupled Finite-Element Modeling Optimization Procedures

“…But both of them use an isotropic and linear material model, which strongly limits the accuracy of their computation. Similar studies [27], [28], [29] are carried out by implementing an anisotropic, nonlinear and straindependant material model to simulate the vibration due to magnetostriction. However, the magnetic circuits they worked on seem to be far from a laminated transformer core.…”

“…The free magnetostrictive strain µ computed from the SMSM is then transformed into a nodal equivalent force F eq [35] [36], that should produce the same deformation as the one produced by the free magnetostriction. In the variational form, nodal equivalent forces at node i are expressed as in (28):…”
