GB/T 44391-2024 Methods of measurement of the magnetostriction characteristics of grain-oriented electrical steel strip and sheet by means of a single sheet tester and an optical sensor
1 Scope
This document defines the general principles and technical details of the measurement of magnetostriction characteristics of grain-oriented electrical steel strip and sheet by means of a single sheet tester and an optical sensor. It specifies the measurement procedure, calculation of the properties, reproducibility of the peak-to-peak value λp-p, the measurement setup and the test report.
This document is applicable to grain-oriented electrical steel strip and sheet specified for the measurement of magnetostriction characteristics under an applied AC magnetic field at 50 Hz or 60 Hz.
Note 1: The accelerometer method[9] is also an established method for the measurement of magnetostriction. However, it is more suited to the measurement of magnetostriction under an externally applied tensile or compressive stress, not zero stress, because it places a weight on the test specimen to prevent a deformation of the test specimen. Since this document includes the measurement at zero stress, the optical sensor method is provided as the optimum method.
This document is applicable to the measurement of:
——the butterfly loop;
——the peak-to-peak value λp-p ;
——the zero-to-peak value λ0-p .
The magnetostriction characteristics are determined for a sinusoidal induced secondary voltage, for a specified peak value of the magnetic polarization and at a specified magnetizing frequency.
Note 2: Throughout this document the term “magnetic polarization” is used as described in IEC 60050-121. In some standards related to electrical steel, the term “magnetic flux density” is used.

4 General principles
4.1 Principle of the method
A length change of a test specimen for a base length under an AC magnetic field is measured by means of a single sheet tester and an optical sensor. Magnetostriction characteristics of the material are determined from the length change of the base length of the test specimen for prescribed peak values of the magnetic polarization and at a specified magnetizing frequency.
A schematic diagram of a test apparatus is illustrated in Figure 2. The test apparatus consisting of windings, a winding former, a bridge, a yoke, a clamp block, a weight, an end stop, an optical sensor and auxiliary support structures shall be fixed to a vibration-free table. The test apparatus may be assembled on a rigid base plate which is non-magnetic and fixed to the vibration-free table.
Note 1: Methods of measurement under an externally applied compressive stress are described in Annex B.
The test specimen shall be placed on the bridge inside the following two windings wound on the winding former (see 4.3.3):
——an interior secondary winding (induced voltage winding).
A flux closure shall be made by the yoke placed under the test specimen. The two pole faces shall be in a horizontal plane. The cross-section of the yoke shall be sufficiently large compared to that of the test specimen. Several types of yoke may be used (see 4.3.2).
The winding former shall be placed symmetrically between the two pole faces so that the magnetic field is symmetrically distributed within the winding former. The length of the winding former shall be as long as possible.
The bridge between the two pole faces shall be placed inside the winding former without touching the winding former. The bridge shall be sufficiently rigid to keep the test specimen on it flat, and the surface on which the test specimen is placed shall be flat and smooth with a low friction film adhered to the surface (see 4.3.4).
Both end parts of the bridge shall be held in close contact with the pole faces. The remaining space between the end parts of the bridge and the pole faces shall be filled with a small amount of high vacuum silicone grease whilst keeping the top surface of the bridge strip flat. In order to prevent a formation of large cavities, the grease should be spotted on the pole face in a grid pattern, the bridge is placed, and pressed firmly from the top of a flat glass plate placed on the bridge.
