Analysis of the behavior and 2D modeling of ferrite inductors with E geometry: comparison with 3D model and real measurements
Departamento de Tecnología Electrónica, Escuela Politécnica Superior, Universidad Carlos III de Madrid, Avda. de la Universidad, 30, 28911 Leganés ( Madrid), Spain
In this paper we propose and validate by experiment a practical method to compute by simulations the inductance of a ferrite inductor as a function of the current intensity level from the linear to the saturation regions. Our method combines the use of 2D Finite Element Analysis with experimental measurements taken in a laboratory environment. We also present and analyze results of the convergence and computational cost of the 2D and 3D simulations showing the reduction of computational cost when we chose the 2D simulation.
