Some of the flux however, will try to flow at angles to the core and will cause eddy currents to be set up in the core itself. The term e ddy is used because it is aside from the main flow. To combat this effect, the core is laminated as illustrated in Figure 3 . The laminations provide small gaps between the plates. As it is easier for magnetic flux to flow through iron than air or oil, stray flux that can cause core losses is minimized.
