This document provides details about a B-H curve training kit that can be used to experimentally trace the hysteresis loop of a ferromagnetic specimen using an oscilloscope. The kit contains an electronic circuit housed in a cabinet along with a transformer core sample. It works by applying a low AC voltage to the primary winding to produce a magnetic field H, which is measured and fed to the horizontal axis of the oscilloscope. The induced voltage in the secondary winding is proportional to the magnetic flux density B and integrated to feed the vertical axis. This allows the magnetic induction B and magnetizing force H relationship, known as the B-H curve, to be displayed on the oscilloscope.

Objective : To make B-H curve training kit

Introduction: This kit will consist of Electronic Circuity housed in a cabinet.


Specimen of transformer stamping will also present in the kit .It will
require a C.R.O. to perform the experiment. The Unit enables one to trace
the B-H loop(hysteresis) of a ferromagnetic specimen using a cathode ray
oscilloscope. One can also measure the area of the loop to evaluate
energy loss in the specimen.

Circuit diagram
Theory

B H Curve - A graphical curve showing the relation between magnetic


induction B and magnetizing force H for a magnetic material. Also known
as magnetization curve.

From the B-H curve it can be seen that, as the magnetizing force
isincreased from zero, the flux increases up to a certain maximum value
of flux. Above this level, further increases in magnetizing force result in no
significant increase in flux. The magnetic material is said to be
'saturated'.A transformer is normally designed to ensure that the
magnetic flux density is below the level that would cause saturation.

Working

There are two windings in the transformer (primary and secondary). The
primary is fed to low A.C. voltage (50 Hz). This produces a magnetic field
H in the specimen. The voltage across R1 (resistance connected in series
with the primary) is proportional to the magnetic field. It is given to the
horizontal input of the CRO. The A.C. magnetic field induces a voltage in
the secondary coil. The voltage induced is proportional to dB/dT (B-flux
density). This voltage is applied to a passive integrating circuit. The
output of the integrator is proportional to B and fed to the vertical input of
the CRO. As a result of the application of a voltage proportional to H to the
Horizontal (input axis and a voltage proportional to B to the vertical
(input) axis, the loop shown in figure is formed.
