Understanding Cores, Chokes, And Losses
Electric current, when flowing through a conductive material, generates a
magnetic field, that which is strongest at the conductor’s surface, and weak
farther from the conductor. Magnetizing a core material won’t stop it from
having a magnetic charge when you stop magnetizing it. Instead, if you want to
get it back to zero magnetization, you will have to reverse the magnetization.
This is what is called the hysteresis loop, which occurs when alternating
positive and negative magnetic fields are applied to the material.
Understanding the hysteresis loop
The magnetization force depicted by the symbol “H” is the magnetic field that
is applied on the magnetic core material. And, the magnetic flux, depicted by
the symbol “B”, is the total magnetic field flowing through an area, the
intensity being referred to as flux density. The hysteresis loop is this B-H curve,
analyzing which is very important when designing transformers, inductors, and
chokes.
What elements alter the magnetic flux?
The area of the core, the number of turns, and the switching frequency are all
important factors that alter the magnetic flux. If the core area, number of
turns, and switching frequency are increased, the flux will decrease. Also,
greater the core material’s permeability, greater is the flux density.
Designing a transformer, inductor, and choke
While designing an inductor or choke, you don’t want to cause saturation of
the core by increasing the AC or DC current. The DC current is what generally
saturates the core, as it’s constant and moves the core to a certain flux level.
Yet, you need to always ensure that the maximum AC current is also well
below the saturation point. Saturation can also be reached by increasing the
flux density, normally by increasing the voltage. The core material’s
permeability also impacts the saturation. High permeability saturates the core
faster, and low permeability saturates the core at a higher flux density.
Core losses
Transformers transfer power, so you want minimum losses when transferring
power from the primary to the secondary. This is the main reason why ferrite
cores are commonly used for high frequency designs, and high-permeability
grain-oriented silicon steel cores are used for low frequency transformers. On
the other hand, inductors and chokes store energy, which is why you want high
flux cores in them. Transformers, inductors, and chokes always encounter
power losses, which generates heat, causing thermal issues. Toroidal core
losses can result from the following –
When the flux is moved from positive to negative, and the area is enclosed by
the loop, it results in hysteresis loss. This loss can be lowered by using more
expensive materials.
When there is difference in flux voltage in the cores causing circulating
currents in the magnetic material, it results in eddy current loss. A higher
switching frequency results in greater eddy current loss.
Miracle Electronics’ chokes are designed to provide the highest common mode
impedance over the widest frequency range. This is the reason why they are
considered as the most reliable toroidal chokes manufacturers in India, when
clients are looking for chokes that are effective in filtering supply and return
conductors with in-phase signals of equal amplitude.
