Power Dissipation of Eddy Currents

Eddy currents are circulating electric currents induced in conductors due to a changing magnetic field. These currents generate resistive heating, leading to energy dissipation. Understanding the power loss due to eddy currents is crucial in applications such as electrical machines, transformers, induction heating, and electromagnetic shielding. This article derives the formula for power dissipation per […]

Eddy Currents in Induction Heating

The Role of Eddy Currents in Induction Heating Eddy Currents in Induction Heating : Induction heating is a highly efficient method for heating conductive materials, widely used in industrial applications such as metal hardening, welding, brazing, and cooking. The primary mechanism driving induction heating is the generation of eddy currents, which produce localized heating within […]
