Abstract :
[en] Electromagnetic fields and eddy currents in thin electrical steel laminations are governed by the laws of magnetodynamics with hysteresis. Conventional homogenization techniques are however complex and very time-consuming. In consequence, hysteresis and eddy currents in ferromagnetic laminated cores are usually outright disregarded in finite element simulations, considering only saturation, and magnetic losses are only evaluated a posteriori, by means of a Steinmetz-Bertotti like empirical formula. This model simplification yields however potentially inaccurate results in the presence of non-sinusoidal B-fields, common in modern electrical devices. Assuming a time-periodic excitation of the system, a more accurate and fast approach, based on homogenization and neural networks (NN), is presented. A parametric homogenized material law is used in the macroscopic model, whose parameters are given element-wise by a NN according to the actual local waveform of the magnetic field. It is shown that, with an appropriately trained NN, this NN-based material law allows computing fields and losses inside ferromagnetic laminated stacks efficiently and accurately.
