Core Loss using Magnetizing Admittance


Admittance, S = 1/Y, using Y computed from Fair-Rite 61 Material Complex Permeability CSV file
%loss = load admittance divided by sum of load and core magnetizing admittance
%loss = 0.02 / (0.02 + Re(S)) dB=10*log10(%loss)
Wire Loss approximation using sqrt(F) with 0.2 Ohm at 1 MHz
