A Coenergy-Based Model of Anisotropic Magnetic Properties K. Chwastek, J. Szczyg?owski1, W. Wilczyński2 1Czestochowa University of Technology, Czestochowa, Poland 2Institute of Electrical Engineering, Warsaw, Poland ABSTRACT Anisotropy affects magnetic properties of steels used in electrical engineering. Designers of magnetic circuits require proper modelling tools to take this phenomenon into account. The concept of coenergy offers an approach, which is thermodynamically coherent and simple to be implemented numerically. The model advanced recently by Biró et al. is applied to describe anisotropic dependencies at arbitrary angles for grain-oriented steel, grade 097-30N5. The modelled dependencies are in an acceptable agreement with experimental data for engineering purposes. The description makes it possible to predict the magnetization curves at arbitrary angles using a limited number of measurements. It allows to cut down time and efforts related to sample processing for measurements. Introduction The concept of coenergy [1,2] has been recently the subject of renewed interest in the scientific community. Many useful descriptions of complex mechatronic devices, e.g. those based on bond graph theory [3], can be easily developed using this formalism [4,5]. The great potential behind the coenergy-based models (their coherence with the principles of thermodynamics) has been noticed by B. Cornut [6]. A practical approach to describe the anisotropic magnetic properties in soft magnetic materials has been advanced by T. Péra et al. [7]. Recently, the description has been further extended by O. Biró et al. [8]. Their proposal is the subject of study in the present paper. Even the so-called isotropic steels used in electrical engineering can reveal a significant anisotropy [6,9-11]. One of the indicators in common use is the ratio where the symbols denote loss density measured either in the rolling direction or in the transverse one, respectively, which
