Abstract:
A magnetic core flux sensor assembly may include a flux sensor core portion and an elongated opening for receiving a conductor winding through the flux sensor core portion. The flux sensor core portion may include a width from a perimeter edge of the flux sensor core portion to the elongated opening that is constant. An electrical current flowing through the conductor winding generates a magnetic field about the conductor winding and a magnetic flux flow in the flux sensor core portion. One or more sensor holes may be positioned relative to the elongated opening for sensing the magnetic flux flow at different distances from the elongated opening. A sensor conductor winding may extend through each pair of sensor holes. The magnetic flux flow generates an electrical signal in each sensor conductor winding. The electrical signal corresponds to the magnetic flux flow at a location of the particular sensor conductor winding.
