Nanocrystalline Core - Significance of Power Transformers

Shenzhen Pourleroi Technology Co., Ltd has been at the forefront of developing and producing amorphous and nanocrystalline cores, sendust core, and various magnetic products such as high frequency transformers, low frequency transformers, filters, and inductors since July 2010. An indispensable part of these products is the nanocrystalline core which has revolutionized the power industry.
Nanocrystalline Core - Significance of Power Transformers


The Nanocrystalline core is a new type of nano-material which is used in the construction of transformers. It is made up of iron-based metal, and some other trace elements such as silicon, boron, and carbon. This composition gives the core unique physical properties and superior magnetic conductivity that make it a great choice for power transformer cores.

Transformers are essential in the transmission of high voltage electricity from the power stations to households, factories, and other places. However, with the increasing demand for energy, there is a need to develop power transformers that are efficient and consume less energy. That's where nanocrystalline cores come in, as they provide excellent magnetic conductivity, which makes them more efficient than traditional cores.

The construction of a transformer's core determines its efficiency, cost and overall performance. Traditional transformer cores are made up of laminations of silicon steel sheets or electrical steel. While these materials are readily available and inexpensive, they are not very efficient due to their magnetic losses.

On the other hand, nanocrystalline cores are made from metal alloys wherein metals are arranged in a nano-crystalline or amorphous structure. The crystal structure of the core is such that the metal atoms are arranged in a non-regular pattern that reduces magnetic losses. This arrangement of atoms within the metal reduces the resistance to magnetic flux, meaning that the core can conduct more energy with minimal losses. Nanocrystalline cores can have up to 80% less core loss than traditional cores made with electrical steel.

The key advantages of nanocrystalline cores are their high permeability, low coercivity, and low core loss. The high permeability ensures superior magnetic conductivity while low coercivity is the measure of the strength of the magnetic field required to remove the magnetization of a material, ensuring that the material is not only magnetized but demagnetized efficiently. The low core loss means that the core does not consume much energy, increasing the transformer's efficiency.

Apart from increasing efficiency, nanocrystalline cores also help in reducing the size and weight of transformers. This is because transformers made from nanocrystalline cores require fewer windings, thereby reducing the size of the transformer.

In addition to efficiency and reduction in size and weight, nanocrystalline core transformers have a longer lifespan than traditional core transformers. Nanocrystalline cores do not degrade over time as quickly as traditional cores, which means that the transformer's lifespan is extended.

Transformers made with nanocrystalline cores are ideal for various applications. They are ideal for power transmission and distribution systems where low core loss is necessary to reduce energy consumption. They are also useful in alternative energy systems, such as solar and wind power, where the transformers must operate efficiently and without requiring replacement.

Shenzhen Pourleroi Technology Co. Ltd is committed to providing excellent products that serve their customers beyond expectations. The company has a stringent quality control process in place and also ensures timely delivery of their products. Due to the superiority of nanocrystalline cores, the company has seen an increase in demand for products that use their power transformer cores.

In conclusion, Nanocrystalline cores are a game-changer in electromagnetic industries, replacing traditional cores and improving the reliability, efficiency, and maintenance of power transformers. With Shenzhen Pourleroi Technology Co. Ltd leading the way in the development of high-quality nanocrystalline cores and related products, the future of Power Transformers is here.
