Single Phase Transformer

Subject and UNIT: Electrical Machines: Unit IV: Single Phase Transformer

• Consider an ideal transformer on no load as shown in the Fig. 6.6.1. The supply voltage is V1 and as it is an no load the secondary current I2 = 0.

Subject and UNIT: Electrical Machines: Unit IV: Single Phase Transformer

• When the primary winding is excited by an alternating voltage V1, it circulates alternating current, producing an alternating flux ϕ.

The principle of mutual induction states that when two coils are inductively coupled and if current in one coil is changed uniformly then an e.m.f. gets induced in the other coil.

• The main advantage of alternating currents over direct currents is that, the alternating currents can be easily transferable from low voltage to high or high voltage to low.

This is one of the methods of testing the d.c. series motors. Unlike shunt motors, the series motor cannot be tested by the methods which are available for shunt motors as it is impossible to run the motor no load.

• This test is called regenerative test or back to back test which can be carried out on two identical d.c. machines mechanically coupled to each other and simultaneously tested.

• This method is generally employed to shunt generators and shunt motors. From this method we can get stray losses. Thus if armature and shunt copper losses at any given load current are known then efficiency of a machine can be easily estimated.
