TABLE 318. 

 ENERGY LOSSES IN TRANSFORMER STEELS, 



Determined by the wattmeter method. 



Loss per cycle per cc = AB*-\-bnBv, where B = flux density in gausses and n = frequency in 



cycles per second, x shows the variation of hysteresis with B between 5000 and 10000 gausses, 



and y the same for eddy currents. 



* German. t English. 



t In order to make a fair comparison, the eddy current loss has been computed for a thickness of 0.0357 cm. (Gage 

 No. 29), assuming the loss proportional to the thickness.
