Basic design of a transformer consists of
one core and two coils.
The core can be air, soft iron or steel.
(a)
The core types of a transformer:
1. Core form
2. Shell form
Core form is a construction of
two-legged laminated core with
the coils wound on two legs.
(b)
Shell form is a construction of
three-legged laminated core with
the coils wound on center legs.
Windings of shell form are arranged
concentrically to minimize the flux
leakages.

Mutual flux:
the portion of flux that goes from
the primary winding to secondary
winding through the core.
It remains in the core and links
both windings.

The total average primary flux:
P M LP
(1-1)
where ФM = flux component linking both primary and secondary coils
ФLP = primary leakage flux
The total average secondary flux:
S M LS
where ФLP = secondary leakage flux
(1-2)
Total power losses in a transformer are a combination of four types of losses:
1. Leakage flux: fluxes which escape the core and pass through only one of
the transformer windings.
2. Copper losses: resistive heating losses in the primary and secondary
windings of the transformer. They are proportional to the square of the
current in the windings.
3. Eddy current losses: resistive heating loss in the core of transformer. They
are proportional the square of the voltage applied to the transformer.
4. Hysteresis losses: losses caused by the rearrangement of the magnetic
domains in the core.
By definition, an ideal transformer is a device that has no core loss and no leakage flux
due to its core is infinitely permeable. Any flux produced by the primary is completely
linked by the secondary, and vice versa.
No current is(t) flowing out of the
secondary side.

Phase angle of VP is the same as the angle of VS and the phase angle of IP is the same as
the phase angle of IS.
The dots appearing at one end of each winding in

current on the secondary side of the transformer.
This utilize the dot convention.
1. If the primary voltage is positive at the dotted
end of the winding with respect to the undotted
end, then the secondary voltage will be positive
at the dotted end also. Voltage polarities are
same with respect to the dots on each side of
the core.
2. If the primary current of the transformer flows
into the dotted end of the primary winding, the
secondary current will flow out of the dotted
end of the secondary winding.

Fig.1-11 AC power system (a) without and (b) with transformer
Based on the use in AC power system, a transformer is differed in a various names:
1. Unit transformer:
a transformer connected to the output of a generator and used to step up the voltage to
transmission line (110+ kV).
2. Substation transformer:
a transformer at the end of the transmission line, which steps down the voltage from
transmission levels to distribution levels (from 2.3 to 34.5 kV).
3. Distribution transformer:
a transformer that takes the distribution voltage and steps down it to the final voltage at
which the power is actually used (110, 208, 220 V, etc.).
All these transformers are essentially same—the only difference among them is their intended
use.
For your first exercise, open the text book of “Electrical Machinery
Fundamentals-Fourth Edition by Stephen J. Chapman, Pg. 73-76 (Example 21). You try to understand the example first and after that you just change the
values of V, Zload and Zline and then you answer all questions like in the
example. OK…

Fig. 1-14 Complete circuits of a real transformer for (a) open and
(b) short circuits
To construct a complete circuit of a real transformer:
each imperfection (core losses) and permeability are taken in to
account;
their effects are included in the transformer model.
Imperfection and permeability can be represented by the values of
resistance and reactance, respectively, by doing two tests:
open-circuit test
short-circuit test

Because of RP and XP are too small in comparison to RC and XM to cause
a significant voltage drop, so all the input voltage is dropped across the
excitation branch.
Therefore, RC and XM can be obtained with measuring the magnitude of
input voltage (VOC), input current (IOC) and input power (POC).

Per-unit (pu) system of measurements is an another method to solve
the circuits containing transformers. In this method, the impedance
transformations can be avoid. Thus, circuits containing many
transformers can be solved easily with less chance of error.
In pu system, the voltages, currents, powers, impedances, and other
electrical quantities are not measured in SI units (volts, amperes, watts,
ohms, etc.) but measured in decimal fraction.
Any quantity can be expressed on a per-unit basis by the equation:
Actual value
Quantity per unit
base value of quantity
where actual value is a value in volts, amperes, ohms, etc.
(1-27)
To define a pu system, two quantities need to select. The ones usually
selected are voltage and real or apparent power.
In a single-phase system, these relationships are

Voltage regulation is a quantity that compares the secondary voltage of
a transformer at no load with the secondary voltage at full load. It is
defined by the equation:
VR
VS ,nl VS , fl
VS , fl
x100%
(1-31)
where, VS,nl = secondary voltage at no-load (V)
VS,fl = secondary voltage at full-load (V)
Since at no load, VS = VP/a, the voltage regulation can also be
expressed as
VR
V p / a VS , fl
VS , fl
x100%
(1-32)
If the transformer equivalent circuit is in the per-unit system, then voltage
regulation can be expressed as
VR

VS , fl , pu
For an ideal transformer, VR = 0.

At full-load, a transformer has the total loss (Ploss) in Watts:
Ploss Pcore PCu
(1-36)
where,
Pcore = input power in Watts on the open-circuit test = core loss
PCu = input power in Watts on the short-circuit test with full-load currents
= I2R loss on full load
and the output power (Pout) in Watts is given by:
Pout Vs I s cos s
(1-37)
So, the efficiency of the transformer can be written as
Vs I s cos
