Hello everyone,
I am working on my first transformer design using a powdered iron core.
I have designed transformers using ferrite before, but powdered iron is new to me.
The manufacturer does not provide the Ae (Effective area) of the cores they make.
They only provide the core dimensions and the "Magnetic Dimensions" L,A,V and W.
How can I find the Ae of these cores so I can do the math to ensure I don't saturate the core???

Or is the design process different when using iron powder?
