Thanks everyone for your input..........

Now then, let's say the transformer in question here has a 6.5kw loss at idle.

Does this loss increase with load by a percentage?

At no load, we have a 6.5kw loss, what could we expect if the transformer was loaded at 75%. Would the losses increase porportionally to the load, or not?

Would more magnetizing currents and eddy currents be present, therfore increasing the total amount of losses, or is it the other way around. Whereby loading the transformer more, decreases the idle losses?
