Hi, you can apply an AC voltage in eddy current and time transient magnetic solvers by creating a winding.

Ohmic losses, as you mentioned, are related to the resistance of the conductors and can be calculated using Maxwell to include effects such as induced steady current losses in permanent magnets, rotor bars, or stator windings, as well as eddy losses. Core losses, on the other hand, are associated with the magnetic material of the core and include hysteresis and eddy current losses within the core material itself.

I hope this helps!
