Abstract :
Efficient and economical utilization of oriented cold-rolled steel requires that magnetic flux traverse the steel in the rolling direction; the effects of joints be reduced; and strains in the finished core be minimized. Reductions in core loss, exciting current, and noise level are being obtained in routine production units of Spirakore transformers using these principles
