Skin and Proximity Effect Losses in Transformer and Inductor Windings

  • Chapter
Electromagnetic Modelling of Power Electronic Converters

Abstract

Equations are derived to calculate conductive and eddy current losses in transformer and inductor windings, A prominent feature of this mathematical approach is that it permits seperation of the ohmic losses into skin effect, proximity effect and frequency components.
