Abstract

We report a comparison of rotational energy loss measurements in the same non-oriented Fe–Si laminations carried out by two laboratories Istituto Nazionale di Ricerca Metrologica (INRiM) in Torino, Italy and Wolfson Centre for Magnetics (WCM) in Cardiff, United Kingdom. The measurements were performed on disk samples at magnetizing frequencies between 5 and 200 Hz with controlled circular flux density loci ranging between 0.2 and 1.9 T. Energy loss was measured applying both the fieldmetric and the rate-of-rise of temperature methods. The latter, exploiting the rate of rise of temperature under quasi-adiabatic conditions, is conveniently adopted on approaching magnetic saturation. Results from the two laboratories agree well up to 1.4 T, despite the different physical principles of the fieldmetric vs. rate-of-rise of temperature methods and the different size of sample and measuring areas. The rate-of-rise of temperature method seems to be the natural approach at high induction values.
