INTRODUCTION:
One of greatest advantage of alternating current over
direct current
the alternating currents can be easily transferable from
lowest voltage to
high or high voltage to low voltage. . Alternating voltage
can be raised or
lowered as per requirements in the different stages of
electrical network as
Generation ,transmission, distribution and utilization.
This is possible
with a device is called as transformer.
WHAT IS TRANSFORMER :
Transformer is a static device which transfers the
electrical power or energy from one alternating current
circuit to another with desired change in voltage or
current and Without any change in the frequency.
A transformer used to increase the voltage is called step
up transformer .while that used to decrease the voltage is
called a step down transformer.
WORKING PRINCIPLE OF TRANSFORMER:
According to Construction :
a)core type
b) Shell type
c) berry type
According to function :
a) power transformer
i) step up transformer
ii) step down transformer
b) Distribution transformers
SINGLE PHASE TRANSFORMER:
THREE PHASE TRANSFORMER:
CORE TYPE AND SHELL TYPE
TRANSFORMER:
IDEAL VS PRACTICAL TRANSFORMER:
A transformer is said to be ideal if satisfies the following
properties ,
It has no losses.
Efficiency is 100 %.
I. Hysteresis losses
II. Eddy current losses
APPLICATIONS:
Irrigation purpose
Electronic devices
Domestic purpose
