Answer / nilkanth tailor
Basically, we used ferromagentic material in core...when
magnetic flux linked with thid core..thier is some
physically expand and contract slightly with each cycle of
the magnetic field...and that effect known as
magnetostriction..(Magnetostriction is a property of
ferromagnetic materials that causes them to change their
shape or dimensions during the process of magnetization...
it was first identified in 1842 by James Joule when
observing a sample of nickel)...due to this effect causes
fluctuating forces between the primary and secondary
windings. These incite vibrations within nearby metalwork,
adding to the humming noise, and consuming a small amount
of power.

Answer / yasir wani
coz of eddy currents flowing in the core , and leakage
currents from leakage inductance to ground

Answer / hemant kumar
the reason of this type of noise is due to harmonics
genrated in transformer.

Answer / ghanshyam singh
i think it is due to mechanical fault which arose while
manufacturing the transformer
due to the small gaps in the core
