The reason why amachine cant be one hundred percent effective is as a result of losses.For Electrical machine such as alternator we have Mechanical losses(such as windage and frictional losses)and Electrical losses(such as copper loss in the rotor winding and stator winding).In Mechanical machine the main losses are windage and frictional losses.NOTE;ALL THIS LOSSES RESULT IN THE PRODUCTION OF HEAT,THUS REDUCING THE EFFICIENCY OF THE MACHINE.
