Eddy Current Loss in Transformer Formulas

Eddy current loss are defined as the loss occurring due to loops of electrical current induced within conductors by a changing magnetic field in the conductor according to Faraday’s law of induction. And is denoted by P_e. Eddy Current Loss is usually measured using the Watt for Power. Note that the value of Eddy Current Loss is always positive.
