"It is weird too, if you did an FFT of fundamental and harmonics, all the harmonics fit a curve, like how a filter could shape a band pass of a circuit, here it is in the distortion spectra.
The cause is small scale “kinkyness†in the iron’s BH curve."interesting point. As I recall, if you measure the B-H curve, at the lowest signal levels on the very first half cycle, the curve is extremely non linear owing to the initial coercive force necessary to to overcome the inertia of the magnetic domains to move into alignment in the first place. Once you cycle the transformer, it takes on the more familiar double ESS curve. Any comment about that?
