Abstract

In this paper, the method for calculating losses in magnetic cores operating in a DC/DC power converter is experimentally verified for selected samples. The chosen method of calculating magnetic losses based on loss measurements under sinusoidal excitation is described, and the measurement process is discussed. The results of power loss measurements with a direct current bias for three different magnetic core materials, e.g., ferrite, nickel–iron–molybdenum alloy powder, and nanocrystalline, are presented. A quantitative determination of the deviations for the tested method is proposed, including the frequency dependence of the deviation distribution.
