Does the FeMT tool count the AC winding losses (skin effect and proximity effect) when doing the efficiency map?

    Hi,

    The only losses compute in the case of FeMt are:

    • Iron losses (stator+ rotor)
    • Magnet losses
    • Joule losses (DC losses)

    For the AC losses, this is not taken into account in the computation.

    Thanks.
