Description
Book SynopsisThe book presents practical aspects related to the measurement of rotational power loss in soft magnetic materials. The book furthermore focuses on practical aspects of performing such measurements, the associated difficulties as well as solutions to the most common problems. Numerous practical aspects, hands-on experience, and most commonly encountered pitfalls are heavily discussed in the book. The text begins with introduction to magnetism, then follows with definitions of measurement methods of rotational power loss from physical viewpoint. Two chapters describe and detail the various sensors which can be employed for such measurements as well as all the aspects of designing, making, and using a magnetising apparatus. A synthesis of the likely optimal design of a magnetising apparatus is also given, preceded with the full reasoning based on all the research carried out to date. Characterisation of Soft Magnetic Materials Under Rotational Magnetisation serves as an excelle
Trade Review
'[An] excellent reference book with detailed explanations of state-of-the-art measurement techniques, equipment, and data-processing skills. More details on specific topics can be found from the references, which are complete and up to date. Overall, the book is well written, and all figures are of high quality. Students or professionals who are working in or planning to work in the field of soft magnetic materials characterization would find it quite instructive. Readers with an engineering undergraduate degree should have no problem comprehending most of the content.'
