    1. Thanks for your comment... The correct answer is Option A.

      Reason: For an ideal transformer( or say near ideal transformer) the winding resistance is negligible( ie, no winding losses ) and the core has no losses.
      But the eddy current will be available in it.

      Once again thanks for reading...

    2. windage loss doesn't mean winding loss.It is the loss due to air friction on rotating parts of machines.

    3. If the eddy current is present, how will loss be not there?

    4. Transformer is a static device.... Then how can u say that transformer has windage losses? Windage losses goes in to the category of rotational losses along with frictional losses.... Then how can u justify the answer A is correct rather than answer B?

    5. regarding qn 2 the question is about which is not common? eddy currents are common in both the transformer and a rotating machine.the answer might be option c

    6. Question 2 answer is wrong it is C instead of A

  2. it is very use full,,,
    please provide more induction motor question answers.
    thanks,

  3. at qes no 2 the option a is not correct at all it should be windage loss because in transformers there is no friction and windage loss dua to no rotating part in transformers but in case of rotating machines there is certain friction and windage loss present due to rotation of machines

  5. [2] Which loss is not common between a transformer and rotating machines?
    A. Eddy current loss
    B. Copper loss
    C. Windage loss
    D. Hysteresis loss
    2nd oansne answer you have given is wrong it is windage loss not eddy current loss
    may be present in motor or tr

    1. Yes, but some times also air cores are used to reduce the Eddy current loss.
