Technology is getting frequent updates, and sometimes it’s really hard to keep up with it from the consumer’s standpoint. Much goes behind how modern technology is designed, manufactured, and produced. Therefore, advanced technological devices are a group of so many elements and features. However, not many people know that almost all technology with a rotary … Read more
Slip rings are a big part of engineering as they provide a solution to one important problem in electrical engineering, especially among devices that have a rotary aspect to it. Even though they’re often overlooked, slip rings are super important as not only do they provide a solution, but they also introduce plenty of additional … Read more
Heat is generated during the operation of a transformer due to ohmic losses (I2R losses) in the winding and core. The removal of heat from the transformer is called transformer cooling. In this article, we will learn different ways to cool a transformer. Types of Transformer Cooling Methods Depending upon the type of transformer, transformer … Read more
Flyback Transformers are electrical transformers that produce high voltage signals and strong boosting capacity at a high frequency. They can be operated over a range of input voltage & load conditions. Also known as coupled inductors, they provide circuit isolation and encourage both positive or negative output voltages. Usually, these transformers are designed as voltage … Read more
The short circuit test is performed on a transformer to find series branch parameters and rated copper loss. This test is always preferred to perform on the high voltage (HV) side of the transformer. The short circuit test is always done at the rated current on that side of the transformer where the test is … Read more
The open circuit test is performed on a transformer to find no-load (or shunt branch) parameters and core loss (or iron loss). This test is also known as the no-load test. This test is always preferred to perform on the low voltage (LV) side of the transformer. This test is always performed on the rated … Read more
Current transformer and Potential transformer are the types of instrument transformer. An instrument transformer is a special type of transformer that is used in the measurement of high voltage and high current, not allowing measuring instruments to come in direct contact with high voltage circuits. Potential transformer is also known as voltage transformer. In this … Read more
A power transformer is one of the types of transformer. The basic function of this transformer is to transfer electrical energy from one voltage level to another voltage level without changing the frequency. These transformers are used at specific locations in power systems. In this article, we will see the basic characteristics of a power … Read more
A transformer is an electrical device that is widely used in electrical power transmission and distribution systems. There are different uses of transformer. In other words, a transformer is used in many applications. In this article, we will throw light on the applications of a transformer in detail. Different uses of transformer 1. Change the … Read more
