Noun
induced current (countable and uncountable, plural induced currents)
An electric current due to variation in the magnetic field surrounding its conductor.
Because the motion of this induced current flow is perpendicular to the magnetic field, the plasma is accelerated out into space by the Lorentz force at a high exhaust velocity (10 to 100 km/s). Source: Internet
The heating caused by the induced current is called ohmic (or resistive) heating; it is the same kind of heating that occurs in an electric light bulb or in an electric heater. Source: Internet
Ohmic heating ~ inductive mode Since the plasma is an electrical conductor, it is possible to heat the plasma by inducing a current through it; in fact, the induced current that heats the plasma usually provides most of the poloidal field. Source: Internet
