Answer rating: 100% (QA)

Eddy current This are current loops formed over conductors surface caused by changing magnetic fields Eddy current create a magnetic current that that opposes the change in magnetic fields This resistance causes production of heat in the induction motors This may cause unnecessary heating and wastage of power causing a difficulty in the functioning of the induction motors Care that should be taken to reduce eddy losses when constructing an induction motors When constructing an induction motor we should take care of the design and components of the core The core should be made as a set of thin sheets that are insulated placed adjacent to one another The sheet should be placed parallel to the magnetic field ...
