7 Any transformer consists of the following three basic parts in it. Primary coil Secondary coil Transformer (Magnetic) core

8 1. Primary coil The primary coil is the coil to which the source is connected. It may be the high voltage side or low voltage side of the transformer. An alternating flux is produced in the primary coil. 2. Secondary coil The output is taken from the secondary coil. The alternating flux produced in the primary coil passes through the core and links with there coil and hence emf is induced in this coil. 3. Magnetic core The flux produced in the primary passes through this magnetic core. It is made up of laminated soft iron core. It provides support to the coil and also provides a low reluctance path for the flux.

9 Construction of Power and Distribution Transformers Construction Core Type High voltage Shell Type Less leakage flux Type of Cooling Ventilated Dry-Type Transformers They are cooled by natural air convection. Gas-Filled Dry-Type Transformers Cooled with nitrogen or other gases Liquid-Immersed Transformers Hermetically sealed tanks with insulated liquid (mineral oil, silicone oil)

10 Transformer Types In a step-down transformer, the secondary voltage is less than the primary voltage and Nsec < Npri In a step-up transformer, the secondary voltage is greater than the primary voltage and Nsec > Npri Step Up Transformer In an isolation transformer, the secondary voltage is equal to the primary voltage and Nsec = Npri

11 Faraday s Law Principle of Transformer Action d e N e N dt d dt The same flux (mutual flux) exists in both coils. Flux is generated by i 1 (right-hand rule). The induced emf e 1 and e 2 are generated to oppose the buildup of flux in its window. i 2 is generated by the induced emf e 2. In DC, the induced emfs are transients, in steady state: AC Assuming: Core permeability constant No leakage flux p p max s s d 0 e 1 e 2 0 dt E 4.44N f E 4.44N f E E p s N N p s max

12 Transformer V P V S N P N S - is the Primary Voltage - is the Secondary Voltage - is the Number of Primary Windings - is the Number of Secondary Windings Φ (phi) - is the Flux Linkage

13 Example A ideal transformer having 90 turns on the primary and 2250 turns on the secondary is connected to a 120 V, 60Hz source. What is the effective voltage across the secondary terminals? Solution: N 2 N1 = E 2 E = E = E E 2 = = 3000 V

14 Example An ideal transformer having 90 turns on the primary and 2250 turns on the secondary is connected to a 200 V, 50 Hz source. The load across the secondary draws a current of 2 A. What is the effective value of the primary current? Solution: N 2 N1 = I 1 I = I = I 1 2 I 1 = 25 2 = 50 A

15 Single Phase Transformer information: HV 115 kv LV 7200 V Capacity 16,670 KVA Primary amps 16,670, ,000 = 145 amps primary Secondary amps 16,670,000 7,200 = 2315 amps secondary Turns Ratio 115, = 15.97/1 Current ratio Check = 15.97/1 Calculating single phase transformer MVA Voltage X Current 115,000 X 145 amps = 16,675,000= 16.67MVA 7,200 X 2315 amps = 16,668,000 = MVA

16 Transformer efficiency The efficiency of a transformer is the ratio of power delivered to the load (P out ) to the power delivered to the primary (P in ). That is ƞ = P out P in 100% P out = V S 2 R = = 2.25 P in = V p I = = 2.4 ƞ = P out P in 100% = % = 93.75% 94%

17 In-Rush current When connecting an AC source to a transformer circuit the current called the transient component or in-rush current Although the in-rush component to a transformer decays rapidly, dropping to the normal no-load current within 5 to 10 cycles, it may exceed 25 times the full-load rating during the first halfcycle. This high in-rush must be taken into consideration when selecting fuses and/or circuit breakers. The magnitude of the in-rush depends on the magnitude and phase angle of the voltage wave at the instant the switch is closed.

18 Transformer Polarity Transform polarity refers to the relative phase relationship of transformer leads On power transformers the terminals are designated by the symbols H1, and H2 for the high-voltage (HV) winding and by X1, and X2 for the low-voltage (LV) winding. By convention, H1 and X1 have the same polarity. The transformer has either additive or subtractive polarity. A transformer is said to have additive polarity when terminal H1 is diagonally opposite terminal X1 A transformer has subtractive polarity when terminal H1 is adjacent to terminal X1

20 Three-Phase Systems Three-phase power is preferred over single-phase power for several important reasons: Three-phase motors, generators, and transformers are simpler, cheaper, and more efficient Three-phase transmission lines can deliver more power for a given weight and cost The voltage regulation of 3-phase transmission lines is inherently better

21 Three Phase Transformers A three-phase transformer can be built by constructing a threephase transformer on a common magnetic structure or can be built by suitably connecting a bank of similar three singlephase transformers Three-phase transformers use much less material than three single-phase transformers for the same three-phase power and voltage ratings. Three-phase transformers have all three phases wound on a single magnetic core or in shell-type and core-type construction. The principal disadvantage of a three-phase transformer, compared with its three-transformer counterpart, is that failure of one phase puts the entire transformer out of service

22 Balanced Three-Phase System Three-phase transformers are required to step up or step down voltages in the various stages of power transmission. The primary and secondary windings may be connected in either wye (Y) or delta (Δ) configurations. There are therefore four possible connections for a three-phase transformer:» Y -Δ» Δ -Y» Δ - Δ» Y-Y
