Two-dimensional magnetic properties of silicon steel sheet subjected to a rotating field

Abstract

A study of the two-dimensional rotational magnetic properties of a steel sheet are discussed. These are measured making use of the vector relation between magnetic field strength H and magnetic flux density B. The results of this study lead to the following main conclusions: the permeability tensor becomes a full matrix under rotating flux; the off-diagonal terms of the permeability tensor are antisymmetric when the axis ratio of rotating flux is 1.0; and the mu /sub xy/ and mu /sub yx/ terms are due to rotational hysteresis.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
