Measurement of magnetic properties of soft magnetic composite materials at high frequencies and high flux densities

This paper focuses on the measurement of magnetic properties of soft magnetic composite(SMC) materials at high frequencies and high flux densities. Since SMC materials are very promising in the design of high-frequency and high power density motor, the losses at a very high frequency are needed to be measured and then the calculation of the performance of the machine will be accurate. In this study, the hysteresis loops and magnetic losses of an SMC material Somaloy® 700 were measured and extended to 8 kHz.
