Abstract :
Two alloys of nonoriented electrical steel, with 2.45 and 3.3%Si, respectively, had their magnetic properties characterized in an Epstein frame. Hysteresis curves for total, quasi-static, and parasitic losses were plotted and overlapped to identify the region where the anomalous loss happens. It was observed that most anomalous loss is from the domain wall movement´s region and a smaller contribution from nucleation and annihilation regions.
