प्रश्न
Describe briefly and two energy losses, giving the reasons for their occurrence in actual transformers ?
Advertisements
उत्तर
Energy losses occur in transformers:
(i) Flux leakage: Not all of the flux due to primary coil passes through the secondary due to poor design of the core or the air gaps in the core.
(ii) Eddy currents: The alternating magnetic flux induces eddy currents in the iron core and causes heating.
