Core Loss (Exercise 1)
A toroidal core of mean length 15cm and cross-sectional area 10cm2 has a uniformly
distributed winding of 300 turns. The B-H characteristics of the core can be assumed to
be a rectangular form, as shown in the figure. The coil is connected to a 100V, 400Hz
supply. (i) Determine the Hysteresis Loss in the core. Next, determine (ii) Eddy
Current Loss, as well as (iii) Total Loss. The core-laminations is alloy-steel material,
with thickness of 0.3mm, and resistivity of 𝟑𝟎 ∗ 𝟏𝟎−𝟖 𝒐𝒉𝒎 − 𝒎.
Core Loss (Solution)
𝑛 𝑓 = 𝐴𝑟𝑒𝑎 𝑜𝑓 𝐵 − 𝐻 𝑙𝑜𝑜𝑝 ∗ 𝑉
As discussed before 𝑃ℎ = 𝐾ℎ 𝐵𝑚𝑎𝑥 𝑐𝑜𝑟𝑒 ∗ 𝑓
2 𝜋2 𝑡 2 0.0003 2
Similarly, 𝑃𝑒 = 𝐾𝑒 𝐵𝑚𝑎𝑥 𝑓 2 𝑉𝑐𝑜𝑟𝑒 ,
where 𝐾𝑒 = 2
=𝜋 ∗ = 0.493, and 𝐵𝑚𝑎𝑥 = 1.2 𝑇
6𝜌 6∗30∗10−8
Substituting the values, 𝑃𝑒 = 0.493 ∗ 1.22 ∗ 4002 ∗ 15 ∗ 10−5 = 17.03 𝑊
𝑃𝑐𝑜𝑟𝑒 = 𝑃𝑒 + 𝑃ℎ = 17.03 + 2.88 = 19.91 𝑊

Construction of Transformer Core
Source: https://www.electronics-tutorials.ws/transformer/transformer-construction.html
1. Core-type construction: Small leakage flux exists, as windings surround the core.
2. Shell-type construction: Lower leakage flux than core-type, as the core surrounds the winding.

Typically, silicon-steel laminations are used to reduce the eddy-current losses. The choice of
lamination depends on the type of core-construction, as shown above.

All the core and winding losses are neglected.
It is assumed that the core has infinite permeability and hence zero
reluctance.
