Abstract

We present a parametrised Preisach-type model that describes the hysteresis exhibited by the high temperature superconductors (HTSC); hysteresis is the main cause for losses in the subcritical domain. The parametrised model, in combination with electrical measurements, is independent of geometry, number of filaments and other physical measures, and is identified by a novel method that uses electrical lock-in (loss) measurement technique, which greatly enhances the signal to noise ratio. Identification results from measurements on Bi-2223 multi-filamentary tapes are presented. We have further derived exact models for the hysteretic losses in strip and elliptic geometry strips, where the energy losses were calculated by Norris. The paper contains analysis of the Preisach Model, of its losses and of the suggested parametrisation.

Hysteresis

Hysteresis is the dependence of the state of a system on its history. For example, a magnet may have more than one possible magnetic moment in a given magnetic field, depending on how the field changed in the past. Plots of a single component of the moment often form a loop or hysteresis curve, where there are different values of one variable depending on the direction of change of another variable. This history dependence is the basis of memory in a hard disk drive and the remanence that retains a record of the Earth's magnetic field magnitude in the past.

Geometry

Geometry (; ) is a branch of mathematics concerned with properties of space such as the distance, shape, size, and relative position of figures. Geometry is, along with arithmetic, one of the oldest branches of mathematics. A mathematician who works in the field of geometry is called a geometer. Until the 19th century, geometry was almost exclusively devoted to Euclidean geometry, which includes the notions of point, line, plane, distance, angle, surface, and curve, as fundamental concepts.

Magnetic hysteresis

Magnetic hysteresis occurs when an external magnetic field is applied to a ferromagnet such as iron and the atomic dipoles align themselves with it. Even when the field is removed, part of the alignment will be retained: the material has become magnetized. Once magnetized, the magnet will stay magnetized indefinitely. To demagnetize it requires heat or a magnetic field in the opposite direction. This is the effect that provides the element of memory in a hard disk drive.
