An Analysis of Minor Hysteresis Loops Behavior under PWM Voltage - Electromagnetic Device at No-Load and Loaded Conditions
2021
Abstract This paper addresses the influence of the primary and secondary resistances on the behavior of minor hysteresis loops when the electromagnetic device is fed by three-level PWM (pulse width modulation) voltage. To study the device transferring energy to a load, the experimental approaches are different of traditional procedures to material characterization, where problems inherent to the process are added. Analytical, FEM and experimental analysis are performed on a toroidal transformer equipped with a flux sensing coil. The leakage fluxes related to the primary and secondary currents are shown to cause errors in the measurement of the core magnetization current. A solution to mitigate this problem is employed, consisting in twisting and winding together primary and secondary conductors. Experimental methodologies for obtaining the value of the iron losses when the device is transferring energy to a load are also performed. The study shown showed that supply voltage with three-level PWM waveform causes minor hysteresis loops and the greater the resistance value of the excitation winding, the larger the areas of the minor hysteresis loops. On the other hand, by increasing the energy transferring to a load the minor loops areas tend to decrease.
