Working Principle
The working principle of a power transformer is based on electromagnetic induction. It consists of two or more coils of wire and is called primary winding and secondary winding. These are wound around a common iron core and when alternating current (AC) voltage is applied to the primary winding it produces a magnetic field around the iron core. This changing magnetic field induces a voltage in the secondary winding through mutual induction resulting in the transfer of electrical energy from the primary circuit to the secondary circuit.
Power Transformers
Power transformers are essential devices in the electrical system that play a critical role in transmitting electricity from power plants to distribution networks and end-users This comprehensive guide provides an in-depth overview of power transformers, covering their primary terminologies, working principles, step-by-step design considerations, and practical examples.
