Due to their high saturation flux density, amorphous metallic alloys play a key role in linear induction accelerators that require ferromagnetic cores with sufficient volt-seconds to support multiple pulses. As both the shape of the material hysteresis curve and the core losses depend on the magnetization rate, dB/dt, measurements at various rates are necessary in any system model involving these alloys. We present the characterization of two candidate materials, Metglas 2605CO and 2605HB1M, at magnetization rates ranging from 1–6 T/ws. We also compare our results to published data [1]. |
