Determination of Steel Losses and Optimization of the Thickness of the Transformer Magnetic Conductor Sheets by S. M. Plotnikov

“…Since eddy current losses are proportional to the square of the frequency, and hysteresis losses are proportional to the frequency in the first degree, simple calculated expressions of eddy current and hysteresis losses have been obtained using the wattmetric method. Based on the fact that the dependence of the magnetization loss on the thickness of the magnetic conductor plates is a decreasing linear function, and the eddy current loss is an ascending parabolic function, an expression of the optimal thickness of the plates has been found, the implementation of which makes the losses of steel minimal. …”
