Modelling magnetic properties of high silicon steel

The paper is aimed at modelling dynamic hysteresis loops of high silicon steel. Hysteresis loops are described with the modified Jiles-Atherton approach. The dynamic effects due to eddy currents are taken into account by the introduction of components of effective field related to loss components in Bertotti's model. A satisfactory agreement between the measured and the modelled dynamic hysteresis loops as well as derived quantities is obtained for those values of peak flux density and frequency, which are of interest from industrial point of view.
