Reply To: Stray loss in structural parts of the Transformer

[Timos]

Hello, when you're working with impedance boundaries, it's important to note that they are used to simulate eddy effects without explicitly solving and meshing for the skin depth. This is particularly useful for calculating stray losses in conducting materials with very thin skin depth.
Regarding the resistance not matching with the conductors provided, it's possible that the issue lies in how the impedance boundary condition is applied or how the material properties are defined. It's recommended to use impedance boundary conditions when the skin depth is two orders of magnitude smaller than the conductor thickness
