Modeling of Electrical Machines Hysteresis Losses Under Mechanical Stresses

Abstract

The effect of mechanical stress on hysteresis losses of electrical steel sheets is investigated in this paper. Experimental data obtained from a dedicated bench are used in a curve fitting procedure to analyze the parameters behavior for a hysteresis losses model over a range of mechanical compressive and tensile stresses. By applying the concept of equivalent stress, a finite element model is simulated, and the hysteresis losses are a posteriori calculated considering an equivalent stress distribution over a single-phase induction motor stator.
