It is shown that the energy-balance method used in deriving these models is actually closer to a balance of coenergies, thereby depriving the resulting JA phenomenology of physical meaning. The non-physical basis of its dynamic extension is demonstrated by a sharp contrast between hysteresis loops predicted by the model and those measured for grain-oriented steel under conditions of controlled sinusoidal flux density at frequencies of 50, 100, and 200 Hz.

Spline approximations to the magnetization curves make these models applicable to major loops of any shape. The representation of reversal curves permits the development of a method that generates reversal curves guaranteed to be free from nonphysical negative slopes and excursions outside the major loop. The applicability of the models to electrical steels and a powder core is illustrated.

The influence of the transformer tank walls as a distributed-parameter hysteretic element is reproduced by solving a diffusion equation that describes the penetration of the plane electromagnetic wave into the depth of the wall. The reliability of the model is validated by comparing its zero-sequence impedances to those measured on a 25-MVA transformer, in the presence and absence of a tertiary stabilizing winding. An Electromagnetic Transients Program–Alternate Transients Program implementation of the model is outlined.

We found that GO steels (0.3 mm thick) can be modeled quite accurately at magnetizing frequencies up to 200 Hz by a thin sheet representation, which is applied to a bulk material. At higher frequencies, acceptable results can be obtained through a finite-difference solver of a 1-D penetration equation whose applicability to GO steels can be explained in terms of domain wall bowing. Because of the inertial effect introduced by the magnetic viscosity, the average error in the loss prediction is reduced from 40% for the conventional classical method to 5% for the methods we studied. We demonstrated the accuracy of the models using two GO steels whose losses and – characteristics were measured by computer-controlled Epstein and single-sheet testers.

For this reason, this paper proposes a thin sheet model, improving the eddy current field description on the basis of physical ideas in the framework of the saturation wave model, which describes the dynamic magnetization of the material with rectangular hysteresis loop. Therewith, the layer-to-layer nature of the magnetization reversal is taken into account. The hysteresis is modeled by means of a static history-dependent hysteresis model. This leads to a simplified model of conducting ferromagnetic sheet, which describes magnetization of isotropic electrical steels.

This makes it possible to create an approximately rectangular pulse. Two methods of correction - corresponding to methods of connection of the RLC two-pole network into the converter circuit - are described: connection of the network between the pulse generator and converter and connection of the network in series with the load resistance element. A computer technique for computing correction parameters is described.

This BVP is derived from the proper Maxwell equations. A nonstandard finite-difference (FD) technique is compared with a standard finite element (FE) formulation. For nonlinear problems, characterized by abrupt changes in the magnetic permeability, being the material coefficient in the BVP, the second-order FD-scheme is recommended.

The DHM is compatible with static underlying model of any type and nature (Preisach or non-Preisach). The distinguishing features of the DHM are its arbitrary frequency dependence and the ability to control the shape of the dynamic hysteresis loop. The numerical method for the incorporation of the DHM in magnetodynamic computations is illustrated by a good agreement of modelled dynamic loops with measured loops of non-oriented and grain-oriented electrical steels. r

It is shown that the well-known approximation of the total loss simulated by the DPM-B by the expression C0+C1sqrt(f) is a low-frequency limit of a more complex dependence characterised by a faster growth of the excess loss component. The anomalous temporal and frequency behaviour of the DPM-B is revealed by comparing the DPM-B to a recently proposed dynamic hysteresis model, which is compatible with static hysteresis models of any type and provides a desirable excess loss dependence invariable in all frequency range. In such a way, it is shown that the applicability of the phenomenological DPM-B and its modification is constrained to the low frequencies and steady-state periodic regimes.

modeling based on open-circuit test data obtained for a wide
range of terminal voltages and inrush current measurements that
were carried out for different residual fluxes of a 300 kVA
transformer. The core type transformer model is based on a
dynamic hysteresis model which is employed individually in the
legs and yokes. We start with the case where the core geometry
and winding turns are known when fitting the model. The
method proposed is then extended to the case where only the
nameplate data and the measured no-load losses and currents are
available. For this latter case, an optimization model fitting is
developed.
