Credit to Bryce Hesterman from the fb conversation: I'm starting a new thread on ac resistance of windings as a continuation of what I replied to on Stuart Wood's post. Here are the references:

This reference explains mutual impedances including mutual resistances. This is the key to understanding ac resistances of windings.

Transactions on Power Electronics, vol. 5, no. 4, pp. 424-429, Oct. 1990.

This reference shows one way to model transformers that uses mutual impedances. They even show how to include capacitive effects.

E. E. Mombello and K Moller, "New power transformer model for the calculation of electromagnetic

resonant transient phenomena including frequency-dependent losses"

Here is a link to a zip file that shows how to model ac resistances for a two-winding transformer based on Mombello's method. The zip file includes a Mathcad file, a pdf of the Mathcad file and LTspice files that demonstrate how to do a circuit model that includes mutual resistances. There are LTspice files that show the open-circuit and leakage (short-circuit) impedances of the primary and secondary windings, and they match the measured data very closely. There is no way that L-R networks on the primary and secondary windings can match both open-circuit and short-circuit ac resistances. The Mombello method is general. It works for any number of windings, integrated magnetics, flyback and multiple-output flyback transformers. http:https://www.verimod.com/pdf_files/Mutual_Impedance_Transformer_Model_rev_6.zip
