Simulation of Rolling in a Magnetostriction Fe–Ga Alloy

Abstract

Based on the measured physical properties of the Fe–Ga alloy, it was found that a decrease in the material thickness to 0.3 mm leads to an acceptable level of eddy current losses at high-frequency magnetization reversal (20 kHz). Recommendations have been developed on the choice of rolling modes to achieve the required thickness. The modeling of rolling according to the proposed mode is implemented, the distributions of deformation, stresses, and temperature for each pass were obtained. The results obtained are analyzedin the context of the relation between the features of deformation and the processes of crystallographic textureformation.
