Hysteresis loss in a transformer varies as CBmax = maximum flux density) ?

Correct answer: B. Bmax1-6

  • A. Bmax
  • B. Bmax1-6
  • C. Bmax1-83
  • D. B max

Explanation

By the Steinmetz relation, hysteresis loss is approximately proportional to Bmax^1.6, where Bmax is the maximum flux density. Thus the option showing the exponent 1.6 is intended.
