Abstract : The aim of this study is to contribute to the development of the core loss and winding loss modelling and design optimization techniques of the magnetic components used in high frequency static converters. In this context, an automated system for loss measurement and characterization in magnetic materials, particularly in ferrites, is, initially, presented. This system includes a specific software package that allows the accomplishment of these aims and the determination of the hysteresis loop, under sine wave or square wave excitation, within frequency and magnetic induction ranges and at different temperatures, as specified by the user. In order to minimize the measurement errors, Fourier transform algorithms and equivalent circuit parameters of some components of the system are used to compute the waveforms of interest. Experimental results illustrate the magnetic loss characterization in two ferrite grades. Next, the winding loss modelling and optimization is presented. A generalized approach, obtained through the exact solution of the problem in the cylindrical coordinate system, makes it possible to introduce some approximate solutions. Each of these solutions is studied in detail in order to establish the conditions under which it is valid. These analyses, initially carried out for sinusoidal excitation, are then extended to arbitrary periodic excitation. The winding loss modelling in multilayer windings with foil or round (single or bunched) conductors or litz wire, based on the orthogonality concept between skin and proximity effects, and an automated system for winding loss measurement and models validation are also described. Experimental results illustrate the validity of the models developed. Some aspects concerning thermal modelling and thermal stability of the magnetic components under research are emphasized and the thermal modelling of pot core magnetic components is presented. Experimental results make evident the difficulties in carrying out such modelling. Finally, new procedures are proposed for the design optimization of multiwinding transformers, energy storage inductors and coupled inductors, which take into account the optimization of the eddy-current losses in the windings. |
