Abstract
This article introduces a thermally-compensated magnetic hysteresis model, capable of accurately determining core losses of ferrite materials while accounting for core temperature variations. The employed model is based on permeance-capacitance analogy and it captures the frequency-independent hysteresis effect with the help of the Preisach model. For validation purposes, a 100 kW, 10 kHz realized medium frequency transformer prototype is selected and modeled as a part of a full-bridge LLC resonant converter in a time-domain simulation environment. Conducted simulations show the ability of the thermally-compensated magnetic hysteresis model to impact the generated core losses for core temperatures of up to 120 <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">o</sup> C. Finally, a temperature-feedback loop within the transformer is successfully closed inside of a system-level simulation, allowing for a more precise determination of the core and winding steady-state temperatures.
