Eddy CurrentCoil is wound over metallic core is helpful in reducing eddy currents in the metallic cores of transformers, electric motors, induction furnaces and other such devices (as shown below). Eddy currents are undesirable since they heat up the core and dissipate electrical energy in the form of heat. These currents are minimised by using laminations of metal to make a metal core. When a high frequency alternating current is passed through a coil which surrounds the metal to be melted,
Electrical ResonanceElectrical resonance is said to take place in a series L-C-R circuit when the circuit allows maximum current for a given frequency of the source of alternating supply for which capacitive reactance becomes equal to the inductive reactance. Impedance of this L-C-R circuit is minimum and hence current is maximum. Resonant circuits are used to respond selectively to signals of a given frequency while discriminating against signals of different frequencies. If the response of the circuit is more narrowly peaked around the chosen frequency, we say that the circuit has higher “selectivity or sharpness”. This sharpness is measures with
