Refer to the figure attached. The single phase "exact"-equivalent circuit of a practical transformer has the following equivalent circuit parameters: Np/Ns = 2400V/240V, Rp = 14.1, Xp = 31.2, Rs = 78.5*10^(-3), Xs = 120.5*10^(-3), Rc = 156*10^3, Xm = 172*10^3. The load is...
Hello EE,
I currently have a mini project that Studiot provided me with. Project is a kind of a multi-functional tester. But I want to add another feature to that tester. That tester has a 9V DC output, which gave me an idea.

Hi, I was thinking of making my own power supply and I was wondering how low level I can go with it in terms of designing individual components and then putting them together to form the circuit.
So, I'm looking at like a 120V to 15V transformer then through a rectifier to get 15V DC?
I'm...
Is it possible to use a piezoelectric transformer to step up voltages of 3 to 12 volts to as much as 5 kilovolts? Below are more details of what I would like to do:
Input into transformer: square waves, 0 to 12-volt amplitude with frequency range of 100 Hz to 100 KHz
Output from transformer...
PF is P / S in general. If the transformer is running at 80.1% of full load, the PF should stay the same right since
PF = 0.801P / 0.801S
= P / S
since if the transformer is running at 80.1% full load, the output S and output P would both be 80.1% right? So basically, no matter what load...
Question basically asks to find the parameters of a transformer via an open circuit and closed circuit test. We were taught that for OCT,
V = (I * cos(theta)) * R
V = (I * sin(theta)) * X
To find the core losses. This makes sense, since we are only using the component of the current that...
Hi,
From what I have read, if a bulb X is connected to the input voltage of a step-up transformer, and another similar bulb Y is connected to the output voltage (secondary coil), then Y will be brighter than X.
From Joule's law of P = V I, it seems that the output voltage will be higher...

I was thinking that the possibility may exist that I could install a fused disconnect for my line in from the power company and hook it to a 240v-to- 24v step down transformer, use a whip to connect to another fused disconnect with a 24v-to-240v before entering the panel. my theory is that my...
I once saw three very large transformers in a fenced area smaller than a typical substation fencing. They were close enough to read some numbers on a metal nameplate which gave a list of about 6 primary tap voltages in the 12000 to mid 13000 volt range. There were some other stamped numbers...
