Hysteresis loss and eddy current loss are used in____________?
Correct answer: A. induction heating of steel
- A. induction heating of steel
- B. dielectric heating
- C. induction heating of brass
- D. resistance heating
Explanation
Induction heating of steel produces heat through both eddy-current loss and hysteresis loss because steel is electrically conducting and ferromagnetic. Brass is non-magnetic, while dielectric and resistance heating use different mechanisms.
