Question
Mention various energy losses in transformer device
Advertisements
Solution
Energy losses in the transformer:
Flux leakage, due to poor design of the core and air gaps in the core
Resistance of the windings, which leads to loss of energy due to heat produced
Eddy currents, due to alternating magnetic flux in the iron core, which leads to loss due to heating
Hysterisis, frequent and periodic magnetization and demagnetization of the core, leading to loss of energy due to heat
