Magnetic field and magneto elastic stress in an infinite plate containing an elliptical hole with an edge crack under uniform electric current

摘要

Two-dimensional solutions of the electric current, magnetic field and magneto elastic stress are presented for a magnetic material of a thin infinite plate containing an elliptical hole with an edge crack under uniform electric current. Using a rational mapping function, the each solution is obtained as a closed form. The linear constitutive equation is used for the magnetic field and the stress analyses. According to the electro-magneto theory, only Maxwell stress is caused as a body force in a plate which raises a plane stress state for a thin plate and the deformation of the plate thickness. Therefore the magneto elastic stress is analyzed using Maxwell stress. No further assumption of the plane stress state that the plate is thin is made for the stress analysis, though Maxwell stress components are expressed by nonlinear terms. The rigorous boundary condition expressed by Maxwell stress components is completely satisfied without any linear assumptions on the boundary. First, electric current, magnetic field and stress analyses for soft ferromagnetic material are carried out and then those analyses for paramagnetic and diamagnetic materials are carried out. It is stated that the stress components are expressed by the same expressions for those materials and the difference is only the magnitude of the permeability, though the magnetic fields H _x, H_y are different each other in the plates. If the analysis of magnetic field of paramagnetic material is easier than that of soft ferromagnetic material, the stress analysis may be carried out using the magnetic field for paramagnetic material to analyze the stress field, and the results may be applied for a soft ferromagnetic material. It is stated that the stress state for the magnetic field H_x, H_y is the same as the pure shear stress state. Solving the present magneto elastic stress problem, dislocation and rotation terms appear, which makes the present problem complicate. Solutions of the magneto elastic stress are nonlinear for the direction of electric current. Stresses in the direction of the plate thickness are caused and the solution is also obtained. Figures of the magnetic field and stress distribution are shown. Stress intensity factors are also derived and investigated for the crack length and the electric current direction.
