definition of transformer

Answer Posted / sethu raman

trasnformer is on inducton principle. when we supply input
to the primary winding the flux will produce in primary
wining and that flux cuts the secondary winding. due to
this emf the voltage will produce in the secondary
windings. the out put of the secondary will depends on the
secondary winding.when the primary winding is higher then
secondary that is step down trasformer.then the primary
winding is lower then secondary is called as step up
transformers.mostly step up trasformers are only used in
substations for transmitting power.

A 15 kw squirrel cage motor having a maximum efficiency of 90% on a continuous full load has temperature rise of 42 degrees celcius after 30 min and 52 degrees celcius after 1 hr under the above operation conditions. a) calculate its final steady state temperature rise on continuous load and the heating time constatnt. b) if the motor is operated on a short load for 9 min estimate its temperature rise. c) calculate the maximum overload that can be applied on a short, 9 min rating so that the temperature rise is the same as the final steady state temperature rise on continuous load.
