How do you calculate current flow transformer when 240 Vrms is supply?
The secondary current of a transformer is determined by the load and the secondary voltage applied to that load, and this, in turn, will determine the primary current by the inverse of the turns ratio. However, if you are asking about a transformer's rated secondary and primary currents, then you need to divide the transformer's apparent power rating (expressed in volt amperes) by the rated secondary and primary voltages respectively.
How are lower voltages combined into higher voltages for transmission?
Low voltages are not 'combined into higher voltages' for transmission! The lower voltage (e.g. the voltage generated at a power station) is applied to the primary winding of a large power transformer, and the required higher transmission voltage then appears across the transformer's secondary winding. The magnitude of the secondary voltage is determined by the turns ratio of the transformer's windings.
Does the formula used to calculate the turns ratio uses the phase voltages and phase current?
For a transformer, the turns ratio always applies between its primary and secondary windings. So the turns ratio for a three-phase transformer is the ratio of primary to secondary phase voltages, not between line voltages.
What happen if the number of loops in the primary and secondary coils in a transformer are the same?
If the number of turns in the primary is the same as the secondary, this would be an isolation transformer. Primary and secondary voltages should match (minus the inherent transformer losses), as should the current.
Is 3 phase star transformer has more winding than delta?
The # of windings in a transformer are based on the primary and secondary voltages the transformer is rated for not the way the windings are connected.
What is approximate turns ratio of the centre-tapped transformer used?
It depends on the voltage ratio of the transformer. If you know the primary and secondary voltages, then you can work it out for yourself.
What is the voltage phase shift between primary and secondary line voltages in star-delta transformer connection?
The voltage phase shift between primary and secondary connections in a transformer is 180 electrical degrees.
Is there a basic difference between a three phase power transformer and a three phase distribution transformer?
The basic difference is the secondary voltages. On a distribution transformer the secondary voltage is very high. This is to overcome line loss for transmission of electricity over long distances. A three phase power transformer is used at the consumers three phase services end to manipulate voltages that consumers need to operate their equipment. The transformer that feeds your house is considered to be a single phase power transformer.
What are taps for in a transformer?
The ratio of windings between a primary and secondary in a transformer govern the output voltage. Multiple taps are connections to various points in the coil effectively changing the winding ratios to get multiple voltages from the same transformer. Taps can be on the primary, secondary or both to provide a more versatile transformer.
What is phase shift in three phase transformer?
The phase shift in three-phase transformer from winding of Transformer and determine by vectorgroup of transformer such as YNd1 High voltage connect to wye Low Voltage connect to delta so L.V. lag H.V 30 degree.Answer'Phase shift' or, more accurately, 'angular displacement', is the angle between the secondary line voltages and primary line voltages of a three-phase transformer.
What is the application of transformers having both primary and secondary voltage same?
When the primary and secondary voltages are the same the transformer is being used for isolation. The secondary side will have galvanic isolation from the primary side. The purpose of the is to protect secondary load if a fault occurs on the primary side. The impedance of the transformer will limit the fault current on the secondary which should save equipment.
What is meaning of 9v-0-9v transformer?
It is kind of transformers called center-tap transformer its main function is to transform primary voltage to 2 secondary voltages or vice versa. In your statement the transformer will convert the input voltage to 2 voltage each is 9v or the opposite it will convert the 2 input voltages with each 9v to a certain value depending on the turns ratio of the transformer.
