Hi,nBy using transient solver, you can define a excitation with both DC and AC components. You can define the excitation by add winding, and type in any custom waveform in either voltage or current type excitation. The waveform could be written as something like Vdc+pwl_periodic(dataset, time). The pwl_periodic() function will be your custom AC signal, which should be specified by a user defined dataset. The result losses in transient solver will include both DC and AC losses.n
