"Joseph Meditz" For the phase angle to approach 90 degrees, all the current must go via L - so L must have a low impedance value compared to R. Hence a low L value. Tan phi increases dramatically as phi approaches 90 degrees - so it must be "downstairs" to make L diminish. Yes Phil, you are right. And boy is my face red! I was careless in going from XL + R i.,e. a series CKT to a parallel one. When I worked it out for a || CKT I got your formula of tan phi = R/wL The darndest thing about this is that when the parallel L R CKT is that as the angle approaches 90 degrees the small L approaches a wire! ** Way cool observation there - JM. " Short circuits have a 90 degree lagging phase angle " !!!! A 1 inch long piece of 1mm dia Cu wire becomes mostly inductive above 3 kHz !! ............ Phil |

Phil Allison wrote: "Patrick Turner" = utter ****wit Phil Allison I don't see why all toroidal cores would have to be GOSS. ** There is no other way to make a continuous strip of thin silicon steel, maybe 250 metres long, EXCEPT by rolling it along the direction of the strip. They roll huge wide rolls of Si Fe at BHP Sankey and some ends up as GOSS after annealing. ** Grain orientation is a direct result of the rolling process - fool. Not fool. I don't argue that rolling does things to the "grain", ie metallic crystal structure. So does annealing. I am not an expert on metals, and nor are you from what you are saying. The grain structure orients itself in the rolling direction. So why is there such a huge difference in the U of the materials? Some gets stamped into E&I and further annealed to make the GOSS E&I lams which I like, and then there is Lycore150, which isn't grain oriented, ( NOSS ), and I do't know what processes are used, but obviously less because it is half the price of GOSS. ** The subject is toroidal cores. I have broadened the subject to include other forms of GOSS and NOSS, since there s a wider context that is appropriate at least to me, and perhaps to others in the group. And please don't snip my text when replying so the context will then suit your private agenda, allowing you to ignore answering the questions I have raised.. I really think you need to be more certain than you are to assume say 95% of all toroidal cores are in fact GOSS with a high max U of say above 20,000. ** Iron toroidal cores are all GOSS. That is, at least in my mind, until proven otherwise, an incorrect statement. If you take plain old NOSS, such as Lycore 150 sold by...... If you used the same material and wound a spiral core with the grain all the same way, the effective U is raised. ** Then you have made a GOSS spiral. But Lycore 150 is not regarded as grain oriented. It *does have* a silicon content, but it has not been worked as much as GOSS. How asinine the Turneroid is. Same with GOSS material like the Sankey stuff which measures 17,000 even in E&I form when assembled. It too would have a higher U if spiralled. ** Since a GOSS EI core has one limb oriented the wrong way ( the back of the E stamping) - that is an obvious truism. Well, despite the alternating diection of the grain in E&I GOSS lams, the U is able to be 17,000 with the stuff from Sankey in Newcastle, NSW. It is well annealed and dead flat, and a delight to use, apart from the fact it is so thin, and stacking a large tranny causes insanity. The I comes from where the two holes formed where you butt two E towards each other. Then the I will reach across an E, with grain in the opposite direction. But depending on the total amount of working of the iron, Si % and rolling *and* heat treatments, the U is very different for E&I lams, and the best E&I lams have only a marginally lower U than a toroid made using the same material. You said the U would be raised 10 to 15 times more than where GOSS E&I material is used. Well if that were true, E&I that I use with U = 17,000 would be perhaps 170,000 where used in a toroid core. Plainly you are quite wrong. I suggest to know, you better look at the way they actually make the darn stuff. It isn't of great concern to me though because I don't want a U of 170,000 because it would probably saturate all too easily with a small DC imbalance in a PP core. In an SS class A I used a an OPT, see http://www.turneraudio.com.au/htmlwe...5050mosfet.htm I have used C-cores which only measured U = 4,500 max from AEM, so the amount of grain orientation barely makes it up to today's GOSS; it was only as good as 1950 grade material. Anyway, in a PP SS amp with mosfets the sudden onset of saturation below 14 Hz was intolerable due to huge current peaks, so I placed one thickness of fine plastic from a woolworth's shopping bag to gap the two C-cores used and reduce the U to just under 2,000. The current peaks were tamed, and the OPT acted like an inductance rather than a non linear resistor that had less R as the V went up and the F went down. The current distortion seen while measuring cores shows this characteristic with increasing odd order distortion in the current, and this distortion becomes greater than the fundemental.

I don't think you know as much as Phil or myself. But at least of the 3 of us, I don't claim to know much at all since I have never studied the rolling process or the heat treatments. If I tried to sneak into the back door of Sankey at Newcastle, in NSW, to spy on them while they made the E&I lams I like so much then and only then would I have the full picture. Nobody making such material is going to be open about how they do it all; its private knowledge of a company speciality. And how would that process be cheaper, do you think? What makes rolling GOSS more expensive? What can make steel easier to roll, and at the same time randomise its structure? Obviously lots of heat. But they anneal the GOSS lams after rolling. Anyway, its clear you don't have a clue exactly how the stuff is made. Here in Oz I heard they get a virgin girl of 13 years old to squat on a factory gantry and do a nice long **** down onto the rolling machine on a moonlight shift when they do the final roll of the GOSS. Boy, that makes great steel for OPTs! It sings with tubes forever after. Patrick Turner. cheers, Ian |

Wouldn't a wire have no L, since it was then an R? Well, it would have some L regardless; wire is inductive. And it will be the equivalent of some pure R and L in series. When the series R component is high compared to the reactive Z of the L, the phase shift should be near zero degree. Usually with the primary of a transformer the dcr of the wire is low compared to the impedance of the L component, and the parallel R component of the LR, which is the core, is where the most of the current flow causes power to be dissipated So we get nearer to 90d shift where ZL is low compared to parallel R, and where ZL is high compared to R we get phase shift towards zero. This power factor thing raises a question. In a factory using lots of motors, the power factor may be poor, ie, not all the current needed from the power supplier is converted to power in the electric motors. But someone has to pay for the current not used to produce work in a load to be generated. I have forgotten exactly what is done, but are not large capacitors used to improve the power factor?

I prefer to face whatever comes my way, head right out of sand. Phil's not much of a problem really, he just gets a bit cranky. Nobody else got us to think about power factors and phase shifts. It turned out there was no reason for me to be worried that I was making a serious mistake by not fully understanding PF and phi. I am using a sufficiently conservative design method to give me exactly what I want. I'd much prefer that there were more contributions from the many out there who understand topics like transformer cores et all, but where are they? Then if they made more sense than Phil does and were more polite I'd be able to parley with them instead. Maybe we'd all learn more. Maybe they are frightened of being taunted by a demon, but I have never been frightened by anyone. Terrific fine warm weather we have here.

As it happens we don't need to know "exactly"; a general understanding would be sufficient. Perhaps *you* should know, considering you charge money for your claimed expertise. I do know enough to say that steelmaking is very complex when you get down to the detail, with loads of reversible reactions and phases and crystal structures that depend of temperature and pressure. GOSS is a broad enough description to embrace various compositions and properties. I also know that hot rolling is cheaper if you have the economy of scale and you are actually making the steel. Then you don't need to reheat it. I guess it is rolled at a temperature that keeps it reasonably stiff between rollers, but plastic when the temperature and pressure rise between the rollers. Hence it crystalises *after rolling*. Cold rolling maintains a crystaline structure throughout. But I *don't* know if silicon steel *can* be hot-rolled, and I gave all those books away a long time ago. I guess some metals go from too hard to too runny too quick, with no squidgy in between. That's what I was hoping to find out if I baited your mate, but it turns out he's not worth the effort. There is another thing I don't know for lack of direct experience or a decent core model, and that is why a GOSS toroid (now in my dictionary) should have such a long transition from linear to saturated. I gather from a quick search that many toroids are wound from butt-welded sections rather than continuous strips. Here in Oz I heard they get a virgin girl of 13 years old to squat on a factory gantry and do a nice long **** down onto the rolling machine on a moonlight shift when they do the final roll of the GOSS.
