Abstract
In order to develop higher torque, lower weight and smaller sized magnetic actuators for driving electrical vehicles and robot arms, designing under high magnetic field and high exciting voltage is most effective. It is therefore very important to understand vector magnetic properties in electrical steel sheets under high magnetic flux density conditions. The vector magnetic properties mean the relationship between the magnetic flux density vector and the magnetic field strength vector and it is very difficult to measure the each component under high magnetic flux density conditions because of the magnetic saturation and the magnetic anisotropy. In this paper, accurate measurement techniques of the vector magnetic properties over 1.5T and measured vector magnetic properties are reported and discussed.
