4、oper instrumentation andapplication of the principles of testing and calibration embodied in the testmethods, they are believed to be adaptable to testing at frequenciesranging from 25 to 400 Hz.1.2 These test methods use calibration procedures thatprovide correlation with the 25-cm 250-mm Epstein t
5、est.1.3 The range of test magnetic flux densities is governed bythe properties of the test specimen and by the availableinstruments and other equipment components. Normally, non-oriented electrical steels can be tested over a range from 8 to 16kG 0.8 to 1.6 T for core loss. For oriented electrical s
6、teels, thenormal range extends to 18 kG 1.8 T. Maximum magneticflux densities in peak permeability testing are limited princi-pally by heating of the magnetizing winding and tests arelimited normally to a maximum ac magnetic field strength ofabout 150 Oe 12 000 A/m.1.4 These test methods cover two a

17、lar specimen comprised ofa single piece of material or paralleled multiple strips ofmaterial arranged in a single layer.4. Significance and Use4.1 Materials EvaluationThese test methods were devel-oped to supplement the testing of Epstein specimens forapplications involving the use of flat, sheared
18、laminationswhere the testing of Epstein specimens in either the as-shearedor stress-relief-annealed condition fails to provide the mostsatisfactory method of predicting magnetic performance in theapplication.As a principal example, the test methods have beenfound particularly applicable to the contr
19、ol and evaluation ofthe magnetic properties of thermally flattened, grain-orientedelectrical steel (Condition F5, Specification A876) used aslamination stock for cores of power transformers. Inasmuch asthe test methods can only be reliably used to determineunidirectional magnetic properties, the tes
20、t methods havelimited applicability to the testing of fully processed nonori-ented electrical steels as normally practiced (SpecificationA677).4.2 Specification AcceptanceThe reproducibility of testresults and the accuracy relative to the 25-cm 250-mmEpstein method of test are considered such as to
21、render the testmethods suitable for materials specification testing.4.3 Interpretation of Test ResultsBecause of specimensize, considerable variation in magnetic properties may bepresent within a single specimen or between specimens thatmay be combined for testing purposes. Also, variations mayexist
22、 in test values that are combined to represent a test lot ofmaterial. Test results reported will therefore, in general, repre-sent averages of magnetic quality and in certain applications,particularly those involving narrow widths of laminations,deviations in magnetic performance from those expected
23、 fromreported data may occur at times. Additionally, application oftest data to the design or evaluation of a particular magneticdevice must recognize the influence of magnetic circuitry uponperformance and the possible deterioration in magnetic prop-erties arising from construction of the device.4.
24、4 Recommended Standard TestsThese test methodshave been principally applied to the magnetic testing ofthermally flattened, grain-oriented electrical steels at 50 and 60Hz. Specific core loss at 15 or 17 kG 1.5 or 1.7 T and peakpermeability (if required) at 10 Oe 796 A/m are the recom-mended paramete
25、rs for evaluating this class of material.5. Sampling5.1 Lot Size and SamplingUnless otherwise establishedby mutual agreement between the manufacturer and the pur-chaser, determination of a lot size and the sampling of a lot toobtain sheets for specimen preparation shall follow the recom-mendations o

Basic Test Circuit6.1 Fig. 1 provides a schematic circuit diagram for the testmethod.Apower source of precisely controllable ac sinusoidalvoltage is used to energize the primary circuit. To minimizeflux-waveform dis
27、tortion, current ratings of the power sourceand of the wiring and switches in the primary circuit shall besuch as to provide very low impedance relative to the imped-ance arising from the test fixture and test specimen. Ratings ofswitches and wiring in the secondary circuit also shall be suchas to c
28、ause negligible voltage drop between the terminals of thesecondary test winding and the terminals of the measuringinstruments.7. Apparatus7.1 The test circuit shall incorporate as many of the follow-ing components as are required to perform the desired mea-surements.7.2 Yoke Test FixtureFig. 2 and F
29、ig. 3 show line drawingsof a single-yoke fixture and a double-yoke fixture, respectively.A double-yoke fixture is preferred in this method but aFIG. 1 Basic Circuit Diagram for Method 1A804/A804M 04 (2009)12single-yoke fixture is permitted. Directions concerning thedesign, construction, and calibrat
30、ion of the fixture are given in7.2.1, 7.2.2, Annex A1, and Annex A2.7.2.1 Yoke StructureVarious dimensions and fabricationprocedures in construction are permissible. Since the recom-mended calibration procedure provides correlation with the25-cm 250-mm Epstein test, the minimum inside dimensionbetwe
31、en pole faces must be at least 22 cm 220 mm. Thethickness of the pole faces should be not less than 2.5 cm 25mm. It is recognized that pole faces as narrow as 1.9 cm 19mm are being used with nickel-iron yoke systems with goodresults. To minimize the influences of coil-end and pole-faceeffects, the y
32、okes should be longer than the recommendedminimum. For calibration purposes, it is suggested that thewidth of the fixture be such as to accommodate a specimen ofat least 36-cm 360-mm width which corresponds to thecombined width of twelve Epstein-type specimens. Should thefixture width be less than 3
33、6 cm 360 mm, it will be necessaryto test each calibration specimen in two parts and average theresults.7.2.2 Test WindingsThe test windings, which shall consistof a primary (exciting) winding and a secondary (potential)winding, shall be uniformly and closely wound on a nonmag-netic, nonconducting co
34、il form and each shall span the greatestpracticable distance between the pole faces of the yoke fixture.It is recommended that the number of turns in the primary andsecondary windings be equal. The number of turns may bechosen to suit the instrumentation, mass of specimen and testfrequency. The seco
35、ndary winding shall be the innermostwinding and, with instrumentation of suitably high inputresistance, normally may consist of a single layer. To reduceself-impedance and thereby minimize flux-waveform distor-tion, it is recommended that the primary winding consist ofmultiple layers of equal turns
36、connected in parallel. Thenumber of such layers should be optimized based on consid-eration of a reduction in winding resistance versus an increasein inductive reactance at the third harmonic of the principal testfrequency used. The primary and secondary turns shall bewound in the same direction fro
37、m a common starting point atone end of the coil form.Also, to minimize self-impedances ofthe windings, the opening in the coil form should be no greaterthan required to allow easy insertion of the test specimen.Construction and mounting of the test coil assembly must besuch that the test specimen wi
38、ll be maintained without me-chanical distortion in the plane established by the pole faces ofthe yoke(s) of the test fixture.7.3 Air-Flux CompensatorTo provide a means of deter-mining intrinsic induction in the test specimen, an air-coremutual inductor shall constitute part of the test-coil system.T
39、he respective primary and secondary windings of the air-coreinductor and the test-specimen coil shall be connected in seriesand the voltage polarities of the secondary windings shall be inopposition. By proper adjustment of the mutual inductance ofthe air-core inductor, the average of the voltage de
40、velopedacross the combined secondary windings is proportional to theintrinsic induction in the test specimen. Directions for con-struction and adjustment of the air-core mutual inductor forair-flux compensation are found in Annex A3.7.4 Flux Voltmeter, VfA full-wave, true-average voltme-ter, with sc
41、ale reading in average voltage times 1.111 so that itsindications will be identical with those of a true rms voltmeteron a pure sinusoidal voltage, shall be provided for evaluatingthe peak value of the test magnetic flux density. To produce theestimated precision of test under this method, the full-
42、scalemeter errors shall not exceed 0.25 % (Note 2). Meters of 0.5 %or more error may be used at reduced accuracy. Either digitalor analog flux voltmeters are permitted. The normally highinput impedance of digital voltmeters is desirable to minimizeloading effects and to reduce the magnitude of instr
43、ument losscompensations. The input resistance of an analog flux voltme-ter shall not be less than 1000 V/V of full-scale indication. Aresistive voltage divider, a standard-ratio transformer, or othervariable scaling device may be used to cause the flux voltmeterto indicate directly in units of magne
44、tic flux density if thecombination of basic instrument and scaling device conformsto the specifications stated above.NOTE 2Inaccuracies in setting the test voltage produce percentageerrors approximately two times as large in the specific core loss. Careshould also be taken to avoid errors caused by
45、temperature and frequencyeffects in the instrument.7.4.1 If used with a mutual inductor as a peak ammeter atmagnetic flux densities well above the knee of the magnetiza-tion curve, the flux voltmeter must be capable of accuratelymeasuring the extremely nonsinusoidal (peaked) voltage that isinduced i
46、n the secondary winding of the mutual inductor.FIG. 2 Single-Yoke Fixture (Exploded View)FIG. 3 Double-Yoke Fixture (Exploded View)A804/A804M 04 (2009)13Additionally, if so used, an analog flux voltmeter should havean input resistance of 5000 to 10 000 V/V of full-scaleindication.7.5 RMS Voltmeter,
47、VrmsA true rms-indicating voltmetershall be provided for evaluating the form factor of the voltageinduced in the secondary winding of the test fixture and forevaluating the instrument losses. The accuracy of the rmsvoltmeter shall be the same as that specified for the fluxvoltmeter. Either digital o
48、r analog rms voltmeters are permit-ted. The normally high input impedance of digital voltmeters isdesirable to minimize loading effects and to reduce the mag-nitude of instrument loss compensations. The input resistanceof an analog rms voltmeter shall not be less than 500 V/V offull-scale indication
49、.7.6 Wattmeter, WThe full-scale accuracy of the wattmetermust be better than 60.25 % at the frequency of test and atunity power factor. The power factor encountered by a watt-meter during a core loss test on a specimen is always less thanunity and, at magnetic flux densities far above the knee of themagnetization curve, approaches zero. The wattmeter mustmaintain adequate accuracy (better than 61 % of reading) evenat the most severe (lowest) power factor that is presented to it.Variable scaling devices may be used to cause the wattme
