Test Core Compone

19、nt6.1 The test core component can be of any magneticmaterial (soft ferrite, iron powder, and so forth). The effectivepermeability of the material must be sufficiently high so thatthe test core component can be driven to the desired fluxdensity with the available test equipment (within the powerampli

20、fier limitations).6.2 When testing for material properties, the cross-sectionalarea of the test core component shall be uniform throughout itsentire magnetic path length. The core may be of any shape.Shapes with nonuniform cross-sectional areas within theirmagnetic path length can be tested for spec

21、ific core shapeperformance comparisons; however, the core-loss density willnot be accurate, since the flux density and core loss varythroughout the magnetic path length and are not uniform.FIG. 1 Basic Circuit for VAW Meter Method Using Primary and Secondary WindingsFIG. 2 Optional Circuit for VAW M

22、eter Method Using One Winding Only (See 7.1)A 1013 00 (2005)26.3 Mated core set assembled around a prewound coil canbe used, as well as toroidal cores.6.3.1 Mating surfaces must be ground smooth and flat tominimize air gaps. Air gaps cause reluctance in the flux pathand cause flux to fringe, both of

23、 which contribute to highermeasured losses.6.3.2 Clamping pressure for the mated core set needs to besufficient to hold the cores together with minimum air gaps butnot so strong that it affects the properties of the materialthrough the creation of stress-magnetostriction anisotropy. Apressure of 5 l

24、b/in.235 kPa is recommended where the area isthe area of the mating surfaces.6.4 The length of test leads from the measuring instrumentsto the test core component should be minimized. The test leadsshould be twisted pairs to minimize magnetic pickup. The testlead capacitance can be significant at hi

25、gh frequencies andcontributes to inaccuracy in the measurements.7. Procedure7.1 Prepare the test core component in the form of atransformer by applying windings to a toroid or for a matedcore set by winding a bobbin and then assembling the magneticcores around it. In either case, the winding should

26、be singlelayer, wound as a bifilar transformer, and distributed evenlyaround the winding length. The number of turns is based on themaximum voltage available from the power amplifier calcu-lated using Eq 6. If sufficient wire size (600 circular mil/amp0.30 mm2/amp) is used, the winding losses are ne

27、gligible;therefore, the secondary of Fig. 1 may be eliminated. Voltagescan then be measured across the primary as shown in theoptional circuit diagram (Fig. 2).7.2 Place the test core component in the temperature cham-ber and attach it to the test equipment.7.3 Set the chamber temperature. Sense the

28、 temperature ofthe core material by imbedding a platinum RTD or Type Tthermocouple into a block of material similar to the materialunder test and with a cross-sectional area equal to or larger thanthe test core component. Some materials, such as ferrite, arepoor thermal conductors and therefore may

29、take considerabletime to reach the ambient temperature (20 min for a 0.5- by0.5-in. 12.7- by 12.7-mm cross-sectional area is common).7.4 Use Eq 6 to calculate the flux voltage for the desired fluxdensity. Set the signal generator to the desired frequency thenadjust the output so that the flux voltme

30、ter indicates the valueof voltage calculated to give the desired test induction. Thevoltage waveform must be sinusoidal to ensure that the powermeasurements are accurate. The simplest way to verify that thevoltage waveform is sinusoidal is to observe that the fluxvoltmeter and the RMS voltmeter indi
