Measurements and Analysis of Amorphous Ribbon Properties Under Non-Standard Operating Conditions
Main Article Content
Abstract
The paper presents measurements and analysis of the magnetic properties of VITROVAC 6030 amorphous ribbons. Hysteresis loops were measured at a frequency of 1 kHz for standardized (sinusoidal) excitations and non-standard operating conditions, i.e., under harmonic flux density waveforms and in the presence of tensile stress. The effect of such operating conditions on the magnetic parameters was analysed.
