  Hello everyone, I'm trying to calculate proximity losses in an inductor. I undersood that using a litz wire, we have to calculate the AC losses with StrandedLossAC. I would like to go further and understood what correspond to proximity effect and skin effect in this analysis. Is it possible to get a detail on ANSYS Maxwell of what are precisely the StrandedLossAC ? Thank you !

  Hi Kili,
  StrandedLossAC includes DC losses and additional AC losses due to skin effect and proximity effect.

  Thank you for your answer, is it possible to get theses losses separately, DC on a graph, skin effect, proximity effect on 3 separated graphs ?
  Best regards
