Abstract :
We have numerically analyzed the AC resistance caused by the skin and proximity effects for a circular wire. It is experimentally and theoretically demonstrated that CCA wires have lower resistance than Cu ones at some circumstances. The CCA wires will be very useful in power transfer systems because they are light-weight, cost-effective and even low-loss.
