An Overview of Non-Destructive Testing of Goss Texture in Grain-Oriented Magnetic Steels

Grain oriented steels are widely used for electrical machines and components, such as transformers reactors, due to their high magnetic permeability low power losses. These outstanding properties the crystalline structure known Goss texture, obtained by a suitable process that is well-known in widespread use among industrial producers of ferromagnetic steel sheets. One most interesting research areas this field has been development non-destructive methods quality assessment texture. In particular, study techniques can be implemented processes very interesting. Here, we provide an overview developed past, novel approaches recently introduced, new perspectives. The reliability accuracy several equipment presented discussed.
