Abstract
The paper presents a finite element analysis of
an E-core transducer with mixed stranded and foil windings
for a DC-DC flyback converter. Both magnetostaticand
time-domain finite element analyses are applied for
deriving characteristic parameters and winding power
losses. The losses are caused by eddy currents in the foils,
which mainly occur at high frequencies. For close-packed
setups, it is shown that the winding losses are concentrated
in the inner and the outer layer of the foil winding. An
optimized foil winding design is developed. Comparative
simulations and measurements demonstrate the increase
in transducer efficiency by subdividing the foil winding.
