ENERGY TRANSFER ELEMENT MAGNETIZED AFTER ASSEMBLY
Last updated:
Abstract:
An energy transfer element comprises a magnetic core having a gap in a magnetic path. Magnetizable material producing an initial flux density is positioned in the gap. One or more power windings is wrapped around the magnetic path. When the magnetizable material is magnetized the flux density produced by the magnetized material is offset from the initial flux density. The core is a toroid magnetic core or is comprised of two core pieces. The magnetizable material is an unmagnetized magnet or a mixture of a suspension medium comprising uncured epoxy and magnetizable particles. The magnetizable particles are selected from a group comprising Neodymium Iron Boron (NdFeB) based materials or Samarium Cobalt (SmCo) based material.
