Abstract
- • A single-sheet tester is built to measure alternating and rotational magnetostriction of electrical steel. • Selection considerations of resistance strain gauges are summarized. • Ignoring magnetostriction anisotropy and rotational magnetostriction will cause errors in electromagnetic analyses. • The research can provide data support for electromagnetic design under different magnetizations. Extensive numerical analyses and experimental tests have shown that while major regions of magnetic cores in electromagnetic devices, such as transformers and rotating electric machines, are dominated by the alternating magnetic fields, the rotating magnetic fields exist in the corner joints of multi-phase transformers and the yoke area behind the teeth of rotating electric machines. These magnetic fields cause core losses due to hysteresis and eddy currents, mechanical vibration and acoustic noises due to magnetostriction. Many studies have been reported in the literature on alternating and rotational core losses and alternating magnetostriction, but not so much on rotational magnetostriction, especially in non-oriented (NO) silicon steel sheets. The vibration and noise caused by rotational magnetostriction are much higher than those caused by alternating magnetostriction. This paper reports the development of a magnetostriction measurement system consisting of a 2D symmetrical single sheet tester (SST) and resistance strain gauges. The selection considerations of resistance strain gauges are summarized. The alternating and rotational magnetostriction characteristics of a NO silicon steel, B35A300 (0.35 mm), are measured. Because the rotating magnetic field in the stator is not always ideally circular but more often elliptical, the magnetostriction under elliptical magnetizations with different axis ratios is also measured. The magnetostriction anisotropy of the NO steel sheet is observed and analyzed. The elongation and contraction under alternating, circular and elliptical rotating magnetizations with different axis ratios are discussed. The results can provide data support for calculating and designing multi-phase transformers and rotating electric machines under different types of magnetizations. The research can provide theoretical and practical guidance for mitigating mechanical vibration and acoustic noise caused by magnetostriction. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
