Vibration Power Generation Property of U-Shaped Unimorph Device Using Grain-Oriented Electrical Steel

Secondary recrystallization characteristics of 3%Si grain-oriented electrical steel

A secondary recrystallization Lab study focusing on the secondary recrystallization temperature and magnetic properties was carried out on cold rolling industrial samples of 3%Si grain-oriented electrical steel produced by low slab reheating temperature technology. The results showed a secondary recrystallization temperature, determined by the observed grain size change, of 1080 C with annealin...

Localised surface vibration and acoustic noise emitted from laboratory scale transformer cores assembled from grain-oriented electrical steel

Mechanism of secondary recrystallization of Goss grains in grain-oriented electrical steel

Since its invention by Goss in 1934, grain-oriented (GO) electrical steel has been widely used as a core material in transformers. GO exhibits a grain size of over several millimeters attained by secondary recrystallization during high-temperature final batch annealing. In addition to the unusually large grain size, the crystal direction in the rolling direction is aligned with <001>, which is ...

Application of Co-Ni-P coating on grain-oriented electrical steel

An electroless plating of Co-Ni-P was applied to a grain-oriented electrical steel substrate resulting in a power loss improvement of approximately 9-11 %. The mean thickness of the coating was found to be 2.15±0.15 μm from Environmental Scanning Electron Microscope (ESEM) images. Shifts of the magnetostriction stress sensitivity curves showed that stress was acting on the substrate corroborate...

Electroless Co–P-Carbon Nanotube composite coating to enhance magnetic properties of grain-oriented electrical steel

The effect of Co–P-CNT coating on the magnetic properties of grain oriented electrical steel was investigated. To analyse the coating, Raman spectroscopy, Superconducting QUantum Interference Device (SQUID), single strip testing, Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and talysurf surface profilometry were performed. Raman spectra showed the D and G band which corroborates the presence of Multi-Wal...
