Fort Wayne, IN NEMA MW 820-2016 Page iii 2016 National Electrical Manufacturers Association INTRODUCTION The testing of conductor “softness” incorporates different metallurgical principles such as ductility, malleability, and surface hardness characte

18、ristics. The purpose of MW 820 is to present different wire testing methodologies used by magnet wire manufacturers and users to characterize the “softness of the conductor” in order to predict how well the magnet wire will wind and be formed into its final desired shape and position. NEMA 820-2016

19、Page iv 2016 National Electrical Manufacturers Association SIGNIFICANCE AND USE NEMA MW 1000 describes two different conductor softness test methods. Total percent elongation and springback test methods and specifications are described in NEMA MW 1000, part 3, section 3.4, Elongation, and section 3.

20、7, Springback. The intent is not to duplicate these test methods, but it is important to recognize and reference them in this publication. Other test methods for conductor malleability and formability need to be described. Maximum formability is desirable because it facilitates winding magnet wire m

21、ore compactly, yields coils that will retain their shape best after removal from the winding forms, and permits the most rapid possible winding with minimum force, minimum wire breakage, and reduced abrasive effects. Each of these test methods provides a more significant measure of formability than

22、do tests for hardness, tensile strength, or total percentage of elongation. These test methods do not necessarily cover identical zones of the total stress-strain region. The springback method employs mild bending, hence a combination of elongation and compression. The low-stress elongation method e

23、mploys very slight elongation, and the elastic ratio method employs the greatest elongation. Both the low-stress elongation and springback methods allow the deformed film-insulated magnet wire to return partially or entirely to the unstressed condition, while the elastic ratio method does not.

36、ting 2.1.1 Summary of the Test Method The conductor is slowly elongated to break, and a stress-strain diagram is recorded by the elongating instrument. 2.1.2 Significance and Use This test method is applicable to all sizes and shapes of copper and aluminum film-insulated magnet wire. The material, f

37、ilm build, and cure of insulation on the conductor has only minor influences on the testing results, since the majority of the cross-sectional area is due to the conductor. These tests are not typically performed on magnet wire where the insulation is fiberglass, polyester/fiberglass, or polyimide t

38、ape wrapped, as these insulation coverings may influence the test results. 2.1.3 Apparatus Use a tensile testing machine that is capable of recording or indicating load (stress) and elongation (strain) simultaneously with a full scale bias of within 0.5 percent in each range. The range of the instru

39、ment used in this test method shall be chosen that load values and elongation percentages can be read on the recording with a precision of 1.0 percent. The jaws shall be designed to preclude slippage or breaking at the jaw. Select an appropriate load cell so the stress level will be within the cente

40、r of the range. 2.1.4 Test Specimen Preparation Cut a magnet wire specimen with an effective gage length of 10 0.1 in. (250 2.5 mm). Extra length is necessary to place in the jaws of the stress/strain tester. Handle it carefully so that no bending occurs except for straightening with a minimum amoun

41、t of work hardening prior to insertion in the jaws. No elongation of the specimen shall be performed prior to the test. Determine the dimensions of the film-insulated magnet wire. Determine the dimensions of the magnet wire conductor after using a suitable means of removing the insulation and not de

42、forming the conductor cross-sectional area. Microscopic measurement of a properly mounted specimen may also be used. The dimensions of the conductor are used in all of the calculations. 2.1.5 Procedure After insertion of the specimen in the jaws, eliminate any noticeable curvature or slack in the wi

43、re specimen. The initial specimen length after removing the slack in the specimen shall be considered the gage length. Elongate the specimen at a rate of elongation not to exceed 10 in./min. (250 mm/min.). Test a minimum of three specimens. NEMA 820-2016 Page 4 2016 National Electrical Manufacturers

When a yield point is not easily defined based on the shape of t

47、he stress-strain curve, an offset yield point is arbitrarily defined. The value for this is commonly set at 0.1 or 0.2 percent strain. An 0.2 percent offset yield is the force at 0.2 percent elongation divided by the original conductor cross sectional area: 0.2 percent yield = Force 0.2 percent elon

48、gation (using the slope of the elastic ratio) / A Elastic ratio: Divide the load obtained at 5 percent elongation, under stress, by the load at break; this quotient, multiplied by 100, is the elastic ratio. Modulus, elastic modulus, modulus of elasticity, Youngs modulus, n: calculated by dividing th

49、e tensile stress by the extensional strain in the elastic (initial, linear) portion of the stressstrain curve. The elastic modulus of an object is defined as the slope of its stressstrain curve in the elastic deformation region represented by “E” in the attached stress/strain curve. 2.2 Low-Stress Elongation 2.2.1 Summary of Test Method The specimen is elongated to a specified low-level stress per unit cross-sectional area. The permanent elongation resulting from this short-term low-level stress exposure is taken as a measure of formability/mal
