  • Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to show formulation of a dynamic E&S model, which enables analysis of the effects of eddy currents under vector magnetic behavior in numerical simulations and to demonstrate its usefulness.

    Design/methodology/approach – When a magnetic flux waveform is distorted, effects of eddy currents increase due to harmonic flux components. In such a case, the result calculated by using the conventional E&S model does not agree with the measured one. The conventional E&S model is improved by considering magnetic flux waveform distortion. The harmonic components of the magnetic field strength waveform were estimated with the classical eddy current model.

    Findings – In the verification of the dynamic E&S model, it was found that the magnetic field was suppressed by the effect of the eddy current. The conventional analysis overestimates the magnetic field, because the magnetic flux waveform cannot distort. In the magnetic characteristic analysis of a three‐phase transformer model core, the correlation between the eddy currents and the flux waveform distortion are clearly demonstrated.

    Practical implications – Both magnetic flux and field strength waveform distortions can be represented in numerical simulations. The dynamic E&S model is very useful for magnetic core design, taking account of practical 2D vector magnetic properties.

    Originality/value – The method presented in this paper enables effects of eddy currents in the magnetic characteristic analysis to be more accurately expressed, considering the 2D vector magnetic properties.
