Comparison of the Preisach and Jiles‐Atherton models to take hysteresis phenomenon into account in finite element analysis

In this communication, the Preisach and Jiles‐Atherton models are studied to take hysteresis phenomenon into account in finite element analysis. First, the models and their identification procedure are briefly developed. Then, their implementation in the finite element code is presented. Finally, their performances are compared with an electromagnetic system made of soft magnetic composite. Current and iron losses are calculated and compared with the experimental results.
