← ScienceWhich consequence arises when a ferromagnetic core within a saturable reactor exceeds its maximum flux density?
A)Increased core hysteresis losses occur✓
B)Core material becomes paramagnetic briefly
C)Reduced temperature coefficient appears
D)Coercivity field decreases substantially
💡 Explanation
Increased core hysteresis losses occur because Domain Wall pinning is impacted by approaching saturation. Because the applied AC field can no longer easily align domains, energy dissipates as heat through increased hysteresis loop area therefore losses increase rather than temperature properties changing directly.
