To evaluate how magnetic properties of magnetic materials are influenced by power semiconductor properties in an inverter circuit, we propose and test a new numerical calculation method. This method combines an electrical circuit analysis for current-voltage properties of power semiconductors with a magnetic analysis based on a magnetic hysteresis model. Previous measurements on an inverter show that magnetic properties, such as B-H curves (B is the magnetic flux density and H is the magnetic field intensity) and iron losses, are affected by ON-voltages of power semiconductors. Those measurements motivate this paper. The magnetic hysteresis model used here is a novel approach that is based on physical thermodynamics theory and can capture the essence of physical magnetic phenomena. Calculations with the proposed method show that measured minor loops in B-H curves are well represented and calculated voltage waveforms properly capture ON-voltage effects.
