Magnetic force computation with hysteresis
Purpose ‐ The purpose of this paper is to present a procedure, which determines the magnetic force acting between a soft magnetic cylinder and a coil taking the hysteresis phenomena into account. Design/methodology/approach ‐ The magnetic
force is computed replacing the ferromagnetic body with an equivalent magnetic moment distribution. Isotropic vector Preisach model with analytical expressed Everett function describes the magnetic properties of the ferromagnetic material. The magnetization distribution is calculated applying
the integral equation method. The Preisach hysteresis model is included in the iteration process based on Picard-Banach scheme. Findings ‐ In the case of integral equation method the unknown quantities are the magnetization and the magnetic field intensity. In this
way the Preisach hysteresis model can be included in a convenient way in the iteration procedure. Knowing the magnetization distribution the magnetic force can be determined. The developed algorithms can be applied in tubular linear motor design. Originality/value ‐
The paper presents a new formulation of the Preisach hysteresis model. With the aim of the analytically expressed Everett function a stable and faster algorithm can be realized to determine the magnetic force in arrangements with ferromagnetic parts.
