why cu losses called cu losses.

Answer Posted / krishna chaitanya

Copper loss is the term often given to heat produced by
electrical currents in the conductors of transformer
windings, or other electrical devices. Copper losses are an
undesirable transfer of energy, as are core losses, which
result from induced currents in adjacent components. The
term is applied regardless of whether the windings are made
of copper or another conductor, such as aluminium. Hence
Copper loss is also called as winding loss.

A 400 V, 50 Hz, Δ connected synchronous generator has a field reactance of 0.1 Ω and armature resistance of 0.015 Ω. At full load, the machine supplies 1200 A at 0.8 pf lagging. Under full-load conditions, the friction and windage losses are 40 KW and the core losses are 30 KW. What is the machine’s overall efficiency? Ignore any field circuit losses.
