Abstract
Purpose
In rotational alternating current machines, interlocking is a commonly used manufacturing method to fix laminated silicon steel cores. The purpose of this study is to measure the localized magnetic properties more comprehensively and to analyze the deteriorated magnetic properties caused by interlocking more accurately.
Design/methodology/approach
A movable B–H sensor is designed in this paper. The localized magnetic properties measurement was performed to investigate the magnetic properties around the interlocks with various sizes, various orientations and various numbers of laminations. Then, the damaged area caused by the interlocking was quantified, and the magnetic degradation of different degrees is layered.
Findings
The measurement results have shown that the interlocks with larger sizes, along the transverse direction and on 10-layer laminate, will lead to more serious magnetic degradation, and the maximum loss increment can reach up to 70%.
Originality/value
This work is an improvement and optimization based on the previous overall magnetic measurement of the interlock. The quantitative results of the localized magnetic measurement will have a certain significance for the accurate modeling and simulation of the electrical machines and provide valuable guidance for the optimization of the actual production process of the motor.
