Abstract
An improved calculation of ferrite core loss for nonsinusoidal waveforms separates a flux trajectory into major and minor loops via a new recursive algorithm. It is highly accurate and outperforms two previous methods for our measured data. The only characteristics of the material required are the standard Steinmetz-equation parameters.
