Roshen’s Models Offer An Advanced Approach To Modeling Core Losses

Focus:
Waseem Roshen modeled both core losses (like Steinmetz) and winding losses (like Dowell)
in magnetic components. This article explains how Roshen models the three sources of core
losses—hysteresis, classical eddy current and excess eddy current losses—and discusses how
these models compare with Steinmetz-derived models. Roshen’s models enable calculation of
core losses taking into account the shape of the ferrite core and for any given excitation
waveform. However, they also require some advanced knowledge of software to implement. The
article begins by reviewing the physics of core losses and Steinmetz’s approach to finding
core losses.
What you’ll learn:
- How to model core losses in magnetic components more accurately using Roshen’s models
- How to understand how Roshen’s models for core losses compare with Steinmetz derived models
- How to understand the physics of core losses
