Which risk increases when a ferromagnetic material approaches its Curie temperature during inductive heating?

A)Runaway thermal excitation occurs
B)Eddy current losses decrease minimally
C)Hysteresis losses become significant
D)Magnetic domain alignment strengthens

💡 Explanation

Runaway thermal excitation occurs because as the Curie temperature is approached, the material loses its ferromagnetic properties; this reduces the skin depth which then increases heat generation due to collapsing magnetic domains rather than saturation.
