Cores are used to reduce the magnetizing current. To contain the magnetic flux within a given volume. In magnetic amplifier applications a saturable core is used as a switch. Power loss is a function of frequency and the ac flux swing.

Typical locations where cores are used Core Material • Purpose of the core is: – To reduce the magnetizing current. (For topologies such as Forward, Bridge etc we need the magnetizing current to be as small as possible. For fly-back topology, though the magnetizing current is used to transfer energy, the size of the transformer will be very large to get the required inductance if a core is not used.) – To improve the linkage of the flux within windings if the windings are separated spatially. – to contain the magnetic flux within a given volume – In magnetic amplifier applications a saturable core is used as a switch. Core Material • Different types of material used for cores – Iron – Silicon Steel – Nickel-Iron – Iron-Cobalt – Ferrite – Molybdenum – Met-glas Core Material • Salient characteristics of a core material are – Permeability – Saturation flux density – Coercive force – Remnant flux – losses due to • Hysteresis • Eddy Current B-H loop of a magnetic material B-H Minor loops Core Material • The power loss is a function of frequency and the ac flux swing and is given by the equation
