Abstract

By identifying the characteristic equation of the specific no-load losses of each iron sheet based on the core configuration, it is possible to reach a high level of accuracy in detecting no-load losses over a wide range of flux density. The method is applicable and frequently used for reference as well as for new sheet types that appear on the market. The results presented in this paper are based on one year experience, showing that the total weight and volume of transformers have clearly been reduced.
