Abstract :
In this paper, a minimum loss design of a 100 kHz inductor with litz wire using an iterative design procedure is presented. The finite element analysis method has been used to investigate the effects of air-gaps and number of turns on the field distribution, operating flux density, leakage flux and core losses
