Woooden is a insulator as it can not carry flux that's the
only reason

Answer / akhilesh kumar singh

because of iron core we can get better flux induction and easily instead of wooden core.

Answer / muhammad asghar

The purpose of core is to provide low reluctance path for
the magnetic flux linking primary and secondary windings.
So if we can't magnetize core electrically then there is no
use of core in transformer. This is the reason for using
electrical steel in transformer as a CORE material because
we can't magnetize wooden material electrically due to its
high reluctance.

Answer / hareesh

core used in tranformer is not irom it is silicon steel
whishhas higt tesisrivity that reduces eddy currenr loses

Answer / dham nazzal

Dham Nazzal

iron core has a Good Permability, which is same as
conductivity in the conductors, which is the abality of
carring the mag. flux.

Answer / nitin shridhar

Just Compare
Electrical circuit Vs Magnetic Circuit.

In Electrical
Voltage= Current* Resistance

In Magnetic
MMF= Flux * Reluctance

We use Copper wire in Electrical circuit as its Resistance is low. Similarly We use Iron as Core Because its Reluctance is small.

Answer / arshad

Wood is a insulator but have low reluctance than air so if you are using a wooden core in place of iron or steel core in the transformer than leakage flux is very high so losses are very high and mutual flux is very less so the efficiency of the transformer is very less.

Answer / sakthivel

wooden is a insulator. electromagnetic induction is not possible.

Answer / alan jenkins

I Can't believe people are asking questions like these.. i have a question.. Why aren't kettles made out of chocolate ?

Answer / siba murugan .k

Woooden is a insulator and it doesnot carry any magnetic
flux . Iron core have good flux induction b/w the primary
and secondary.
