उत्तर
Principle: It is based on the principle of mutual induction, i.e., whenever the magnetic flux linked with a coil changes, an e.m.f is induced in the neighbouring coil.
Construction: A transformer consists of two sets of coils, primary P and secondary S, insulated from each other. Coil P is called the input coil, and coil S is called the output coil. The two coils are wound separately on a laminated soft iron core.
Working: When an alternating voltage is applied to the primary coil, the current through the coil goes on changing. Hence, the magnetic flux through the core also changes. As this changing magnetic flux is linked with both the coils, an e.m.f. is induced in each coil. The amount of the magnetic flux linked with the coil depends upon the number of turns of the coil.
Let `phi` be the magnetic flux linked per turn with both the coils at a certain instant ‘t’. NP and NS be the number of turns of the primary and secondary coils, respectively.
Then at the instant t, the magnetic flux linked with primary coil `phi_P = N_P phi` and with secondary coil `phi_S = N_S phi`.
The induced emf in primary and secondary coil will be
`e_p = -(dphi_p)/(dt) = -N_p(dphi)/(dt)` ....(1)
`e_s = -(dphi_s)/(dt) = -N_s(dphi)/(dt)` ....(2)
Dividing equation (2) by (1),
∴ `e_s/e_p = N_s/N_p` ....(3)
Equation (3) represents equation of transformer.
The ratio `N_s/N_p` is called the turns ratio (transformer ratio) of the transformer.
For an ideal transformer,
Input power = Output power
∴ ePIP = eSIS
∴ `e_s/e_p = I_p/I_s` ....(4)
From equation (3) and (4),
`e_s/e_p = N_s/N_p = I_p/I_s`
