The approach advanced by Harrison puts in the spotlight the fundamental role of bistability in hysteresis modeling. The description is based on physical premises concerning irreversible thermodynamics. In the original model, the upscaling of irreversible phenomena acting on the micromagnetic level is carried out by the introduction of a phenomenological parameter β. In the present paper, an alternative approach is proposed. The outputs of individual outputs of elementary hysteresis units (hysterons) are considered like in the stop model. A verification of the proposed model is carried out using measurement data for a praseodymium–dysprosium ribbon sample and a cylinder core made of cobalt-based amorphous material.

Magnetic properties of hard magnets are currently attracting a great deal of attention. In the paper, the modified Harrison model was used to describe the saturating hysteresis loops of three praseodymium–dysprosium ribbons that differed in their chemical composition and processing conditions. Microstructural studies (TEM and diffraction patterns) were performed for the ribbons under consideration. The Harrison model incorporates a number of physically tangible concepts such as the anhysteretic curve, bifurcations, and bi-stability. The modification of the original approach consisted of adding an additional degree of freedom in the modeling by freeing the restraints present in the original version, in which both coercivity and remanence are functions of temperature only.

The paper presents a new approach to modeling of magnetic properties and the influence of temperature on hysteresis loops in La(FeCoSi)13 magnetocaloric compound. The GRUCAD hysteresis model has been used for analysis of magnetic behavior in the vicinity of the magnetic phase transition. The modeling results are in a qualitative agreement with experiment.

In the present paper, the effect of temperature on the shape of magnetic hysteresis loops for a magnetocaloric composite core was studied. The composite core, based on La(Fe, Mn, Si)13-H, was set up using three component disks with different Curie temperatures. The magnetic properties of the components and the outcome composite core were determined using a self-developed measurement setup. For the description of hysteresis loops, the phenomenological T(x) model was used. The presented methodology might be useful for the designers of magnetic active regenerators. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
