what is eddy current loss?

Answer Posted / smile_senthil

When ever the magnetic flux cuts the conductor, the emf is
induced. at the same time the flux also cut the magnetic
core. it is also a conductor, so emf is induced on that
also. this iron core is a closed path. so a current is
circulated on this core. this current is known as eddy
current.

to minimis this current, the core must be laminated. this
will maked the isolation for current path.

How to measure size of cable on a given load

please give me solution to rectify the emi(electromagnetic interference)

Sir, My doubt on cable sizing calculation, Load:74 KW calculated cable 1 run 50mm2. Now client asking us to reduce cable size by increasing runs. Sir, My question now when my mind strikes with 2 options 1) Divide load 74/2 = 36 and calculate cable for 36+36 making it 2 runs or 2) Simply i can divide 50mm2 /2 ie. 2 runs of 25mm2 Please suggest me sir

A 500 V shunt motor runs at its normal speed of 250rpm when the armature current is 200A. The resistance of the armature is 0.12 Ω. Calculate the speed when a resistance is inserted in the field reducing the shunt field to 80% of normal value and the armature current is 100A.
