Leakage inductance component has asignificant importance in total inductance value of GISR. Neglecting thiscomponent in the design phase, results in an expensive and bulky corestructure. Variation of leakage inductance component in percentage isdetermined and presented as graphical curves for M4 steel by applying energymethod. FEA are performed for variousGISR with several operating voltages and temperature rise values to determinethe leakage inductance component. A design tool with Matlab/Guide is also developedfor analytical calculations to obtain the physical dimensions for FEA. Graphicalcurves introduced to the literature in this work provide manufacturers ordesign engineers to perform fast, reliable and economical GISR design with an alternative materialand offer variety.
