  I have been working on a planar transformer to find the Ac winding resistance using ansys maxwell transient solution type. I am feeding the primary winding with a square wave source by external circuit and the secondary is connected to load via a diode bridge. I am unable to find the AC resistance as there are many options such as Ohmic loss, Solid loss etc. Could someone please help me finding the ac resistance of the planar transformer winding excited with a square wave ac source.

  Hello AbdulBasitMirza,
  We could select "output per object solid loss" in Analysis -> Setup -> Solver, to export each object solidloss, while using "Solid" in winding.
  In field calculator, we could integrate Ohmic loss to calculate Ohmic losses.
  AC winding loss = solidloss = ohmic loss for same "Solid" object.
