Silicon steel sheet properties

Silicon steel sheet properties
 

Silicon steel sheet is essentially an extremely low carbon steel plate with a silicon mass fraction of 0.5% to 5%. Silicon steel sheet can be divided into motor silicon steel sheet (silicon mass fraction is usually below 2.5%, the thickness is generally 0.5ram) and transformer silicon steel sheet (silicon mass fraction is usually 2.5% ~ 4.5%, the thickness is generally.35mm); According to the production method, it can be divided into hot-rolled silicon steel sheet and cold-rolled silicon steel sheet, and cold-rolled silicon steel sheet can be divided into oriented silicon steel sheet (used to make transformers) and non-oriented silicon steel sheet (used to make motors) according to the different degree of grain orientation. According to the working conditions, it can be divided into silicon steel sheets used under strong magnetic fields (mostly used in the power industry, which is the most common amount of the largest) and silicon steel sheets used under weak magnetic fields (mostly used in the telecommunications industry), as well as silicon steel sheets used under power frequency and silicon steel sheets used under high frequency. The silicon steel sheet used at high frequency, in order to reduce the eddy current loss at high frequency, usually adopts the thickness of O. 1 ~ 0.2ram, and the one used for pulse transformers can be as thin as 0.05mm or less.

When the magnetic directivity of iron single crystal and the (110)L001J~ easy magnetization axis [100] are parallel to the rolling direction, and the (110) plane is parallel to the rolling plane, the magnetic sensitivity of silicon steel sheet along the rolling direction is the highest. The structure with the grain orientation of (110)[001] is called Gaussian texture. This kind of directional silicon steel is called grain-oriented silicon steel or oriented silicon steel. Oriented silicon steel is used in transformers, and the higher the degree of orientation is required, the better. This is because the higher the degree of orientation, the smaller the magnetostriction (the so-called magnetostriction is the phenomenon of ferromagnetic substances stretching or shrinking when magnetized, which is the main cause of transformer noise), the better the magnetic properties of the silicon steel sheet, and the iron loss is reduced. Non-oriented silicon steel is used in motor manufacturing.
