Abstract
A method of annealing a core comprises the following steps. First annealing coils are wound around the legs or yokes of a core or parallel-arranged cores made of an amorphous magnetic alloy. Secondly, the core is excited by flowing an alternating current through the annealing coils. Thirdly, the core interior is uniformly heated to an annealing temperature of amorphous magnetic alloy plates by heat generated due to iron loss.
Claims6
A method of annealing cores, comprising the steps of:
- arranging cores having legs and yokes in series and made an an amorphous magnetic alloy, and winding a transformer coil around each pair of adjacent ones of said legs of each pair of adjacent ones of said cores;
- winding annealing coils around one of said legs or one of said yokes of each of said cores;
- and
- passing an alternating current of not less than 2 kHz through said annealing coils, to generate magnetic fluxes which circulate around each of said cores, for producing iron loss in said cores such that the interior of said cores is uniformly heated to an annealing temperature of said amorphous magnetic alloy.
