This paper presents systematic build-up for the development of unified theory for calculating total iron losses (eddy-current and hysteresis) in the ferromagnetic structural components of the fusion Tokamak reactor as well as in the hybrid model of E-BT. Modes of fields induction associated with Helmholtz field radiation function and Maxwell field equations have been used to analyze the various field components throughout the fusion operational cycle.
