प्रश्न
Name three losses of energy in a transformer. How are they minimized?
Advertisements
उत्तर
(i) Heat losses in the windings of transformer. They are minimized by taking a thicker wire in the primary coil than in the secondary coil in a step-up transformer, whereas a thicker wire in secondary coil than in primary coil in a step-down transformer.
(ii) Hysteresis losses in the core of transformer. They are minimized by using soft iron core.
(iii) Eddy current losses in the core of transformer. They are minimized by taking the core laminated instead of taking it as one solid piece.
