2.6.6 Magnetic properties of materials
Many magnetic properties of materials
are expressed in terms of the magnetic field strength H, magnetic
flux density B and the magnetic polarization J. The
SI units of H and B are, respectively, ampere per
metre (A m−1) and tesla (T).
The relation between the quantities expressed in SI
units is:
B=
μ0 H +
J
in which
µ0 is 4π ×
10−7 H m−1, the magnetic constant
(permeability of free space). The absolute permeability, μ( =
B/H) and the volume susceptibility κ
(= J/μ0H), are thus
related by the equation:
μ
= μ0(1 + κ)
The mass susceptibility
χ is equal to κ/ρ, where
ρ is the density. The relative permeability
μr = μ/μ0 is the
permeability of the material relative to that of a vacuum and is the value
given in the tables.
In ferromagnetic materials as
H is increased steadily from zero the permeability changes and is
at first relatively small, its value being defined as the initial permeability,
then reaches a maximum value, and finally decreases towards
μ0 as the polarization tends towards a limiting value
(B − μ0H).
The flux density remaining when H is reduced to zero is the
remanent flux density and the negative H needed to reduce
B to zero is the coercive force. The remanent flux density and
coercive force for a cycle which proceeds to saturation are called the
remanence, Br, and the coercivity,
HcB. In an open magnetic circuit the variation of
J with H is usually measured and the coercivity is
then denoted by HcJ.
When a ferromagnetic material is taken
through a cycle of magnetization there is a loss of energy as heat due to the
combined effects of hysteresis, induced eddy currents and domain wall motion.
The hysteresis loss per unit volume,
Qh = H dB, has been shown empirically to vary
as B1.6max over a limited range of peak
flux density of up to about 1 T for high saturation materials, and 0.5 T for
low saturation materials. This relationship, known as the Steinmetz law, is
nevertheless only approximate. Some indication of the second loss, namely the
eddy current power loss, may be calculated from standard formulae once certain
relevant physical parameters are known. In their present forms, however, these
formulae are only approximate. The total power losses that will be dissipated
in laminar material when an alternating flux is developed in it has a direct
bearing on the efficiency that can be realized in equipment such as
transformers and electric motors and should therefore be known accurately.
Accordingly the power losses of representative forms of typical materials are
measured and some of these are given in Table (3) in terms of power loss per
unit mass.
Many magnetic properties of
ferromagnetic materials depend greatly on previous history, state of strain,
temperature, size, perfection and orientation of crystals, and the effect of
small traces of impurity may be enormous.
When heated, ferromagnetic materials
become paramagnetic at a temperature known as the (ferromagnetic) Curie
point.
Ferrimagnetic materials (ferrites) have
all of the above characteristics of ferromagnetic materials. However, due to
their high resistivity, soft (low coercivity) ferrites are widely used in high
frequency applications, in which case the following parameters are also of
interest:
(a) |
Power loss density—this is
another name for specific total power loss, but for ferrite materials the loss
is usually expressed per unit volume.
|
(b) |
Loss factor—the performance
of ferrites at low field strengths is often indicated by the expression tan
δ where δ is the loss angle, i.e. the phase angle
between B and H. However,
information regarding power losses is usually given in the form of loss factors
normalized to unit permeability, μ, since this facilitates the
calculation of loss coefficients of gapped ferrite cores. Hence the loss factor
is:
|
tan
δ |
= |
tan δh |
+ |
tan δe |
+ |
tan δr |
|
μ |
μ |
μ |
μ |
where tan δh, tan
δe and tan δr are the loss
angles for the hysteresis, eddy current and residual losses respectively, all
of which are present to a greater or lesser extent and combine to give the
total loss, tan δ.
|
(c) |
IEC hysteresis coefficient
ηB—in considering recommendations for standard
forms of loss expression, the International Electrotechnical Commission agreed
the following relationship for the hysteresis coefficient,
ηB,
|
(d) |
Temperature factor—the
permeability of a magnetic material may change for a variety of reasons, the
most obvious being the change of temperature. Over a limited temperature range
the relationship between the reversible change in magnetic permeability,
Δμ, and the corresponding change in temperature,
Δθ, is given by the temperature coefficient,
TC:
As with the loss factor, it is usual to normalize
the values to unit permeability which gives the loss factor:
|
(e) |
Disaccommodation factor—the
permeability of a magnetic material can also change with time after
magnetization. This phenomenon is often called disaccommodation. If the
permeabilities μ1 and μ2 correspond
to times t1 and t2 then the
disaccommodation is given by:
As with the loss and temperature
factors, the disaccommodation factor is normalized to unit permeability and is
given by:
|
disaccommodation factor = |
μ1 −
μ2 |
× 100%. |
μ12 |
|
Apart from changes in their magnetic
permeability, some materials have other responses to changes in magnetic field
strength. All conducting materials exhibit the Hall effect, of which there are
two forms. In the transverse Hall effect a voltage is developed in a direction
at right angles to a current passing through the material when a magnetic field
is applied in a mutually perpendicular direction. The relationship between the
current flowing through the material Ix, the output
voltage, Vy, the thickness of the material,
tz, and the applied magnetic field strength,
Hz, is given by:
Vy
=
(KH Ix μ0 Hz)
/tz
where KH is the
transverse Hall coefficient of the material. It has been found that some
semiconducting materials have sufficiently high Hall coefficients to produce
convenient, small size and low cost magnetic sensors. Indium arsenide having a
Hall coefficient of 0.75 Vm/TA is a widely used material.
The same conditions that produce the
transverse Hall effect also give rise to a voltage in the direction of the
current and this is sometimes called the longitudinal Hall effect but more
usually magnetoresistance. Until recently only small changes in resistance have
been observed (up to 2% for the widely used
Ni80Fe20 material at room temperature) but the so-called
giant magnetoresistance (GMR) has been observed in multilayers of Fe/Cr
(50% change in resistance) and Co/Cu (120% change in resistance). However, strong magnetic field
strengths (≈ 800 kA/m) and a temperature of 4.2
K are required to observe GMR in a multilayer. In all cases the
magnetoresistance of a material is a complex function of the applied magnetic
field strength, temperature, material type and thickness.
Since the properties may vary
considerably from specimen to specimen due to chemical composition and state of
heat treatment, the values given are only to be regarded as typical of the
materials mentioned. A range of values is indicated by a dash.
