Abstract

Flux and iron loss distributions of three-phase reactor are analyzed using the finite element method considering 2-D B-H curves and iron losses in arbitrary directions which are measured up to high flux density. It is shown that the total iron loss of reactor yoke does not change so much by the yoke dimension, although the local iron loss is increased when the width of yoke is decreased. The experimental verification of flux and iron loss distributions are also carried out
