In order to increase both the conversion efficiency and the power density of the power converters, a study on the loss reduction method on the magnetic component is one of the most important issue among the power electronics authorities. Traditionally, reduction methods of the magnetizing loss of the transformers and the ac motors have been studied. However, only a few papers have been reported the inductor iron loss of the ac/dc filter inductor under the use of the high-frequency PWM switching condition. In this case, the magnetic trajectory on the BH-plane has two kind of the magnetic loops. The one is caused by the low-frequency current which depends on the output current and another is caused by the highfrequency ripple current which depends on the modulation condition of the inverter. In this paper, the former magnetic loop is called a major loop and the later magnetic loop is called a dynamic minor loop. Also, it is well known that the magnetic operating point and the shape of dynamic minor loop are changed according to the instantaneous amplitude of the low-frequency current. Especially, in the case when the switching frequency is much higher than the output frequency, the loss caused by dynamic minor loops (the highfrequency ripple current) usually dominate the iron loss of the inductor. Hence the loss calculation on the inductors are usually complicated compared to that on the transformers. The authors have reported a novel loss map of magnetic materials as shown in Fig. 1. By using this loss map, we can calculate the iron loss on the inductors in many kinds of converters. In the case when we calculate the iron loss on the inductor on DC-DC converters, it is enough to multiply the data on the loss map the switching frequency and the volume of the core. Furthermore, we have proposed a novel iron loss calculation method of the ac filter inductor on the PWM inverter by using the loss map. This method enables to calculate the iron loss caused by the dynamic minor loops by using the loss map and executing the easy circuit-simulation. The relation between the control method for the PWM inverter and the iron loss is discussed. The effectiveness of this method is verified through 500 W experimental set-up. Fig. 3 shows the comparison of the iron loss caused of the experimental results and the calculation results. It is clear that the calculation results are good agreement with the experimental results.
