[0050] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a thorough understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited by the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0051] Example 1

[0052] According to an embodiment of the present invention, a transformer core design method is provided. Figure 1The flowchart of a transformer core design method proposed in Embodiment 1 of the present invention is shown. As Figure 1 shown, the transformer core design method may include: Step 110 to Step 120.

[0053] In Step 110, determine the pitch of the stranded wire for winding the transformer winding.

[0054] Here, the stranded wire is obtained by stranding at least two Litz wires, that is, the stranded wire is stranded together by at least two Litz wires in a certain direction and with a certain pitch. Among them, the stranded wire for winding the transformer winding refers to the stranded wire of the conductor used for the winding of the transformer to be designed.

[0055] In one embodiment, the stranded wire can be obtained through Step 111 to Step 113:

[0056] In Step 111, determine the output power and output voltage of the transformer to be designed.

[0057] Here, the output power and output voltage of the transformer can be obtained according to the actual requirements of the transformer to be designed.

[0058] In Step 112, according to the output power and output voltage of the transformer to be designed, determine the cross-sectional area of the stranded wire for winding the transformer winding.

[0059] In an optional embodiment, according to the output power and output voltage of the transformer to be designed, calculate using a third preliminary design formula to obtain the cross-sectional area of the stranded wire for winding the transformer winding; where the third preliminary design formula includes:

[0060]

[0061] Among them, A2 is the cross-sectional area of the stranded wire, P2 is the output power of the transformer to be designed, V2 is the output voltage of the transformer to be designed, and J is the current density.

[0062] In Step 113, select the stranded wire that meets the cross-sectional area from the alternative stranded wires, and determine the pitch of the stranded wire for winding the transformer winding according to the specifications corresponding to the selected stranded wire.

[0063] Here, since the stranded wire is stranded together by multiple Litz wires in a certain direction and with a certain rule, after selecting the stranded wire with a cross-sectional area that meets the requirements, the pitch of the stranded wire for winding the transformer winding can be obtained according to the specifications of the stranded wire.

[0064] In addition, the skin effect needs to be considered when selecting the stranded wire, so as to determine the wire diameter of each single Litz wire in the selected stranded wire. That is, the cross-sectional area of the selected stranded wire should meet the requirements, and the wire diameter of each single Litz wire in the stranded wire should also meet the requirements. The wire diameter of each single Litz wire can be determined by the following method:

[0065] Use the calculation formula to calculate the skin depth of the wire. Here, Δ is the skin depth, μ0 is the magnetic permeability of the wire, ρ is the resistivity, and f s is the electromagnetic wave frequency. Among them, the electromagnetic wave frequency f s is equal to the frequency f.

[0066] The wire diameter d of each single Litz wire in the stranded wire is less than 2Δ, and generally, Litz wire with a wire diameter of 0.59 is selected.

[0067] In step 120, according to the core area of the transformer to be designed and the pitch, determine the core required for the transformer to be designed; among them, the core area of the core is equal to the core area of the transformer to be designed, and the window depth of the core is an integer multiple of the pitch.

[0068] Here, the core area AP refers to the product of the cross-sectional area A e of the core and the window area A w . After calculating the core area required for the transformer to be designed, by querying the core table, select the core that meets the required core area from the core table, that is, the core area of the selected core needs to be equal to the calculated core area of the transformer to be designed.

[0069] Moreover, when selecting the core, the core area of the selected core not only meets the requirements of the core area required for the transformer to be designed, but also the window depth of the selected core should be an integer multiple of the pitch of the stranded wire used for winding the transformer winding, so that the winding length of the stranded wire on the core is an integer multiple of the pitch, in order to reduce the proximity effect of the transformer. For example, if the pitch is 0.2 mm, the window depth can be 100 times 2 cm.

[0070] It should be noted that if the core parameters meeting the above requirements cannot be found in the core table, the core meeting the above requirements can be designed and manufactured by oneself.

[0071] Among them, the proximity effect refers to that when alternating currents flow through conductors close to each other, each conductor is not only in the electromagnetic field generated by its own current, but also in the electromagnetic field generated by the current in other conductors. At this time, the current distribution in each conductor will be affected by the adjacent conductors, and this phenomenon is called the proximity effect.

[0072] Figure 2The schematic diagram showing the proximity effect is as follows Figure 2 As shown, for wire 1, under the influence of the alternating magnetic field generated by wire 2, the charges in wire 1 are forced to move to the left, so the current density on the left side of wire 1 is relatively large. This non-uniform current distribution will lead to a relatively large wire resistance for wire 1. Similarly, wire 2 is affected by the magnetic field generated by wire 1, resulting in a relatively large current density on the right side.

[0073] Figure 3 The schematic diagram showing the stranded wire is as follows Figure 3 As shown, multiple wires are stranded to form a stranded wire. When wire 1 and wire 2 are stranded together, that is, wire 1 and wire 2 form a stranded wire, within one pitch period, the current density on the left side of wire 1 is large in the first half period and the current density on the right side is large in the second half period. Considering the comprehensive effect, the current density distribution will be more uniform compared to the winding formed without stranding. Obviously, this stranding method will, to a certain extent, reduce the non-uniform current distribution phenomenon, suppress the influence of the proximity effect, and further reduce the problem of increased wire resistance caused by the proximity effect. Since the magnetic field affecting the proximity effect in the inner region of the magnetic core where the winding is located is relatively strong, in the present invention, the window depth of the magnetic core is set to an integer multiple of the pitch of the stranded wire, so that the winding length of the stranded wire winding in the magnetic core will be an integer multiple of the pitch of the stranded wire, thereby reducing the influence of the proximity effect.

[0074] In an alternative embodiment, the magnetic core area of the transformer to be designed can be obtained through the following steps:

[0075] Step 121, determine the apparent power of the transformer to be designed.

[0076] Specifically, this step is to determine the input power and output power of the transformer to be designed; based on the input power and the output power, determine the apparent power of the transformer to be designed.

[0077] Here, the input power and output power of the transformer to be designed are determined according to the specifications of the transformer designed according to actual needs.

[0078] Among them, the apparent power can be obtained through the calculation formula P t = P1 + P2, where P t is the apparent power, P1 is the input power, and P2 is the output power.

[0079] The apparent power can also be obtained using the calculation formula where P t is the apparent power, η is the efficiency, and P2 is the output power.

[0080] Step 122, based on the apparent power, determine the magnetic core area of the transformer to be designed.

[0081] Here, the core area AP refers to the cross-sectional area A of the core e and the window area A w product.

[0082] In one embodiment, a second pre-design formula can be used for calculation to obtain the core area of the transformer to be designed; wherein, the second pre-design formula includes:

[0083]

[0084] wherein, AP is the core area of the transformer to be designed, P t is the apparent power, K W is the window utilization factor, K f is the form factor, J is the current density, B m is the working magnetic flux density, and f is the frequency.

[0085] Here, the value of the window utilization factor K W can be 0.4. In the form factor K f , for a sine wave, the value is 4.44, for a rectangular wave, it is 4, the value of the working magnetic flux density is 0.2, and the value of the frequency f is 50 kHz.

[0086] In this embodiment, by setting the window depth of the core of the transformer to an integer multiple of the pitch of the stranded wire used to wind the transformer winding, when winding the winding, the winding length of the stranded wire winding in the core will be an integer multiple of the pitch of the stranded wire, thereby being able to suppress the proximity effect between the windings within the layer. Taking into account the influence between the windings within the layer and between different strands of multiple litz wires, it can thus greatly reduce the proximity effect resistance, reduce the resistance loss, and improve the transformer efficiency.

[0087] Example 2

[0088] Based on the above embodiment, Embodiment 2 of the present invention can further provide a method for designing a transformer core. Figure 4 Fig. shows a schematic flowchart of a method for designing a transformer core proposed in Embodiment 2 of the present invention. As Figure 4 shown, the method for designing a transformer core can include: Step 210 to Step 250.

[0089] Step 210, determining the apparent power of the transformer to be designed.

[0090] Specifically, this step can be to determine the input power and output power of the transformer to be designed; based on the input power and the output power, determine the apparent power of the transformer to be designed.

[0091] Here, the input power and output power of the transformer to be designed are determined according to the transformer required in the actual situation.

[0092] Among them, the apparent power is a quantity representing the capacity of an AC electrical equipment, equal to the product of the effective value of voltage and the effective value of current. The apparent power multiplied by the power factor is equal to the active power.

[0093] Among them, the apparent power can be obtained through the first pre-design formula P t = P1 + P2, where P t is the apparent power, P1 is the input power, and P2 is the output power.

[0094] The apparent power can also be obtained by using the calculation formula where P t is the apparent power, η is the efficiency, and P2 is the output power.

[0095] Step 220: Determine the core area of the transformer to be designed according to the apparent power.

[0096] Here, the core area AP refers to the product of the core cross-sectional area A e and the window area A w . In one embodiment, the second pre-design formula can be used for calculation to obtain the core area of the transformer to be designed; among them, the second pre-design formula includes:

[0097]

[0098] where AP is the core area of the transformer to be designed, P t is the apparent power, K W is the window utilization factor, K f is the form factor, J is the current density, B m is the working magnetic flux density, and f is the frequency.

[0099] Here, the value of the window utilization factor K W can be 0.4. In the form factor K f , for a sine wave, the value is 4.44, for a rectangular wave, it is 4, the value of the working magnetic flux density is 0.2, and the value of the frequency f is 50 kHz.

[0100] Step 230: Determine the pitch of the stranded wire used for winding the transformer winding.

[0101] Here, the stranded wire is the wire used to form the transformer winding. In the present invention, the stranded wire is formed by stranding multiple litz wires together in a certain direction and according to a certain rule. It is applicable to occasions where the skin effect and proximity effect losses of a single-strand wire are too large at a relatively high operating frequency. Using a stranded wire can reduce the operating temperature. Compared with a single-strand wire of the same cross-sectional area, the stranded wire has higher mechanical properties and flexibility.

[0102] In an alternative embodiment, the lay length of the stranded wire can be obtained through the following steps:

[0103] Determine the output power and output voltage of the transformer to be designed.

[0104] Here, the output power and output voltage of the transformer can be obtained according to the actual requirements of the transformer to be designed.

[0105] According to the output power and output voltage of the transformer to be designed, determine the cross-sectional area of the stranded wire used for winding the transformer winding.

[0106] Select a stranded wire that meets the cross-sectional area from the alternative stranded wires, and determine the lay length of the stranded wire used for winding the transformer winding according to the specifications corresponding to the selected stranded wire.

[0107] In an alternative embodiment, according to the output power and output voltage of the transformer to be designed, calculate using a third preliminary design formula to obtain the cross-sectional area of the stranded wire used for winding the transformer winding; wherein, the third preliminary design formula includes:

[0108]

[0109] wherein, A2 is the cross-sectional area of the stranded wire, P2 is the output power of the transformer to be designed, V2 is the output voltage of the transformer to be designed, and J is the current density.

[0110] Here, since the stranded wire is formed by stranding multiple litz wires together in a certain direction and according to a certain rule, after selecting a stranded wire with a qualified cross-sectional area, the lay length of the stranded wire used for winding the transformer winding can be obtained according to the specifications of the stranded wire.

[0111] In addition, the skin effect needs to be considered when selecting the stranded wire, so as to determine the wire diameter of a single litz wire in the selected stranded wire. That is, the cross-sectional area of the selected stranded wire should meet the requirements, and the wire diameter of a single litz wire in the stranded wire should also meet the requirements. The wire diameter of a single litz wire can be determined by the following method:

[0112] Use the calculation formula Calculate the skin depth of the wire, where Δ is the skin depth, μ0 is the magnetic permeability of the wire, ρ is the resistivity, and fs is the electromagnetic wave frequency. Among them, the electromagnetic wave frequency f s is equal to the frequency f.

[0113] The wire diameter d of a single-strand Litz wire of the stranded wire is < 2Δ, and generally a Litz wire with a wire diameter of 0.59 is selected.

[0114] Step 240: Determine the magnetic core required for the transformer to be designed according to the magnetic core area of the transformer to be designed and the pitch. Among them, the magnetic core area of the magnetic core is equal to the magnetic core area of the transformer to be designed, and the window depth of the magnetic core is an integer multiple of the pitch.

[0115] Here, after calculating the magnetic core area required for the transformer to be designed, by querying the magnetic core table, select the magnetic core that meets the required magnetic core area from the magnetic core table, that is, the magnetic core area of the selected magnetic core needs to be equal to the calculated magnetic core area of the transformer to be designed.

[0116] However, when selecting the magnetic core, the magnetic core area of the selected magnetic core not only meets the requirements of the magnetic core area required for the transformer to be designed, but also the window depth of the selected magnetic core is an integer multiple of the pitch of the stranded wire used to wind the transformer winding, so that the winding length of the stranded wire on the magnetic core is an integer multiple of the pitch, in order to reduce the proximity effect of the transformer. For example, if the pitch is 0.2 mm, the window depth can be 100 times 2 cm.

[0117] It should be noted that if the magnetic core parameters that meet the above requirements cannot be found in the magnetic core table, the magnetic core that meets the above requirements can be designed and molded by oneself.

[0118] In an optional embodiment, the magnetic core area of the transformer to be designed can be obtained through the following steps:

[0119] Determine the input power and output power of the transformer to be designed;

[0120] Here, the input power and output power of the transformer to be designed are determined according to the specifications of the transformer designed according to actual needs.

[0121] According to the input power and the output power, determine the apparent power of the transformer to be designed;

[0122] Here, the apparent power can be obtained through the calculation formula P t = P1 + P2, where P t is the apparent power, P1 is the input power, and P2 is the output power.

[0123] The apparent power can also be obtained by using the calculation formula where P tis the apparent power, η is the efficiency, and P2 is the output power.

[0124] Determine the core area of the transformer to be designed according to the apparent power.

[0125] Here, the core area AP refers to the product of the cross-sectional area A of the core e and the window area A w .

[0126] In one embodiment, a second preliminary design formula can be used for calculation to obtain the core area of the transformer to be designed; wherein, the second preliminary design formula includes:

[0127]

[0128] wherein, AP is the core area of the transformer to be designed, P t is the apparent power, K W is the window utilization factor, K f is the form factor, J is the current density, B m is the working magnetic flux density, and f is the frequency.

[0129] Step 250, determine the number of turns of the primary winding and the number of turns of the secondary winding required for the transformer to be designed, so as to wind the stranded wire on the core according to the number of turns of the primary winding and the number of turns of the secondary winding.

[0130] Here, according to the number of turns of the primary winding and the number of turns of the secondary winding required for the transformer to be designed, wind the stranded wire on the core according to the required number of turns of the primary winding and the number of turns of the secondary winding to obtain the designed transformer.

[0131] Among them, the primary winding refers to the primary side, that is, the voltage input side; the secondary winding refers to the secondary side, that is, the voltage output terminal. The number of turns of the primary winding is the number of turns of the coil required for the primary winding, and the number of turns of the secondary winding is the number of turns of the coil required for the secondary winding. After determining the number of turns, wind the stranded wire on the core according to the number of turns requirements to obtain the designed transformer.

[0132] In an alternative embodiment, in step 250, determining the number of turns of the primary winding and the number of turns of the secondary winding required for the transformer to be designed may include:

[0133] Determine the input voltage of the primary winding and the output voltage of the secondary winding of the transformer to be designed;

[0134] According to the input voltage of the primary winding, use a fourth preliminary design formula for calculation to obtain the number of turns of the primary winding; wherein, the fourth preliminary design formula includes:

[0135]

[0136] Among them, N1 is the number of turns of the primary winding, K f is the form factor, B m is the working magnetic flux density, A e is the cross-sectional area of the magnetic core, f is the frequency, and V1 is the input voltage of the primary winding; and

[0137] According to the input voltage of the primary winding, the output voltage of the secondary winding, and the number of turns of the primary winding, a fifth preliminary calculation formula is used for calculation to obtain the number of turns of the secondary winding; among them, the fifth preliminary calculation formula includes:

[0138]

[0139] Among them, N1 is the number of turns of the primary winding, N2 is the number of turns of the secondary winding, V1 is the input voltage of the primary winding, and V2 is the output voltage of the secondary winding.

[0140] In this embodiment, by setting the window depth of the magnetic core of the transformer to an integer multiple of the pitch of the stranded wire for winding the transformer winding, when winding the winding, the winding length of the stranded wire winding in the magnetic core will be an integer multiple of the pitch of the stranded wire, so as to suppress the proximity effect between the windings within the layer. Considering the influence between the windings within the layer and between different strands of multiple litz wires, it is possible to greatly reduce the proximity effect resistance, reduce the resistance loss, and improve the transformer efficiency.
