Both the heating effect of current and hysteresis loss.

I think it is as a result demagnetization and the magnetization processes.

Too much of heat reduce the current generation H = I^2RT.

There are several losses in transformer design the hysteresis loss is mainly due to alternative current which cause magnetic reversal at each cycle, the coercivity field is responsible for this. Joule's heating is also a factor in transformers.

Copper windings has some resistance, current goes through the copper winding, resistance oppose the alternating current, so some heat are produce.

A transformer is an electrical device for changing the size of an AC voltage. They are used to increase or decrease the emf of an alternating current.
