Determination Of Power Loss In Fe-Based Soft Magnetic Composites

Abstract

Abstract The magnetic properties of Fe-based composite materials with different particle sizes were investigated. The results of energy loss density were obtained from measurements of the static (DC) hysteresis cycles ranging from 0,2 to 1,4 T. In turn, the results of power loss density were obtained from measurements of the dynamic (AC) hysteresis cycles ranging from 20 to 400 Hz and at the maximum flux density 0,3; 0,9 and 1,3 T. Two sets of specimens was analyzed in the investigation: the specimens compacted under pressure of 800 MPa and hardened at 500°C and the specimens compacted under different pressure and hardened at 500°C. Specimens of the second set had the same density. The study confirmed the influence of particle size distribution on magnetic properties of Fe-based soft magnetic composites.
