Eddy currents in a magnetic drum can be produced by rotating the drum in close proximity to a magnetic field. The changing magnetic field induces currents in the metal drum, which in turn creates its own magnetic field that interacts with the original field, causing eddy currents to flow within the drum.
That's from an analogy from eddy currents in water. Quoting from the Wikipedia, article "Eddy (fluid dynamics": "In fluid dynamics, an eddy is the swirling of a fluid and the reverse current created when the fluid flows past an obstacle."
The formula to calculate eddy currents in a conductor due to changing magnetic fields is given by: E -d/dt, where E represents the induced electromotive force, is the magnetic flux, and dt is the change in time.
An eddy current is a type of electrical current that flows in a circular pattern. It is created when a conductor is exposed to a changing magnetic field. Eddy currents are commonly used in industries for non-destructive testing, metal sorting, and electromagnetic braking systems. They can also be found in applications such as metal detectors, induction heating, and speed sensors.
An Eddy Current absorption dynamometer produces braking torque using the principle of eddy currents induced in a rotating metallic disk, immersed in a magnetic field. It is basically an eddy current brake mounted in trunnion bearings. Its advantages are maintenance, control, simple construction and desirable speed-torque characteristics. The speed-torque characteristics make the eddy current dynamometer ideal for engine testing, and its versatility also allows effective use in testing transmissions, turbines, electric motors, gears, pumps and many other machines.
Transrapid Maglevs slow down and stop using a combination of electromagnetic brakes and eddy-current brakes. Electromagnetic brakes work by applying a magnetic field to the track, which induces a current in the moving magnets of the train, creating a force that opposes the motion. Eddy-current brakes work by creating a magnetic field that interacts with the conducting track, generating eddy currents which create an opposite magnetic field that slows down the train. These braking systems work together to gradually slow down and bring the Transrapid Maglev to a stop.
Eddy current loss in Transformers is because of the eddy currents formed in the body of the magnetic core.Whenever a conductor(iron core) exposed to a changing magnetic field a magnetc field produced in the body of the magnetic core.That induce a circulating current in it.Which is called eddy current.In the case transformer it is loss.But it is useful in other purposes.
An 'eddy' (not 'eddi'!) current is a current that flows in the magnetic circuit (core) of an electrical machine, due to a voltage induced into that core by a changing magnetic field. Eddy currents cause energy losses in electrical machines. To minimise eddy currents and, therefore, their losses, machines use laminated cores which restrict the paths through which eddy currents can flow.

When an AC generator provides an alternating current to the coil will induce the magnetic filed around it. This is called primary magnetic field. The impedance is nothing but the opposition to the current flow. The coil will have resistance as well as inductance. When this coil is brought to near any conducting material, due to the primary magnetic filed the eddy currents will develop in the material. The magnetic filed which will induce in the material is called secondary magnetic field due to the eddy current secondary magnetic field will try to oppose the primary magnetic field due to any change in the eddy current pattern. Once primary magnetic filed gets affected in the coil definitely there will be a change in impedance in terms of resistance and inductance.You can think of eddy currents as current flowing in the wrong direction (across laminations in transformers, for example). This energy is effectively lost, causing a higher loss, increasing the resistance. Eddy currents will have a minimal effect on impedance, since this is typically much larger than the resistance (note impedance is the resistance and reactance of the coil, reactance will typically dominate).
Eddy currents can be minimized through several methods, including the use of laminated magnetic cores, which reduce the cross-sectional area available for current flow. Implementing non-conductive materials or insulating coatings can also prevent the formation of eddy currents. Additionally, designing components with higher resistivity and using thinner sheets of conductive materials further decrease eddy current losses. Finally, employing alternating magnetic fields at higher frequencies can help limit eddy current generation in conductive materials.

eddy current can be reduced by using laminated cores. and also be reducing the thickness of the stampings. transformer iron loss is the combination of eddy current loss and hysterisis loss. both the losses depend on core of the transformer and iron loss is a constant loss.
Not an answerable question because you've specified none of the variables such as rate of change of magnetic flux, flux density, distance, current etc. There probably are formulae that allow you to calculate the eddy currents for given conditions, but I've not encountered them. However it doesn't take much to induce at least very small currents, for that is the principle of the magnetic coupling in a speedometer.
Eddy current testing can be carried out on all the metals provided the metals should be able to conduct the current. No need that it should have magnetic property. Magnetic praticle testing can be carried out only on ferromagentic materials since it works on magnetic permeabiltiy principle. Materials which has poor magnetic permeability is not able to test with MPI. This is very simple answer.
