Synchronous generators operate on the principle of electromagnetic induction. They have a stationary armature winding and a rotating field winding supplied by a direct current source. It is advantageous to have the field winding on the rotor and armature winding on the stator because it allows for easier insulation of the high voltage winding and direct connection to the load. The frequency of the induced voltage depends on the number of rotor poles and its rotational speed. Armature reaction is the effect of the armature magnetic field on the main rotor field, distorting or strengthening it depending on the load power factor.
This document discusses different methods for testing DC machines. It describes the objectives of testing as determining if a machine's performance matches its design specifications and investigating any variations. Three main testing methods are outlined: direct, indirect, and regenerative. The direct method involves directly loading the machine and measuring efficiency. The indirect method determines performance characteristics from no-load test data using methods like Swinburne's test. Swinburne's test involves running the machine at no-load and recording parameters to calculate constant and stray losses.

This allows transformer impedances to be treated as single values regardless of which side they are referred to. It also keeps per unit quantities within a narrow range and clearly shows their relative values. The procedure is demonstrated through an example circuit solved first using single phase and then three phase per unit analysis with the same result.

A transformer is a static device that changes alternating current (AC) at one voltage level to AC at another voltage level through electromagnetic induction. It consists of two coils, the primary and secondary windings, wrapped around a laminated iron core. When an alternating current is applied to the primary winding, it produces an alternating magnetic field that induces a voltage in the secondary winding. This allows the transformer to step up or step down voltages without changing the frequency. The transformer transfers power between its two coils through electromagnetic coupling between the coils wound around the iron core.
This document summarizes the key topics in the chapter on electrical transformer design and cost estimation. It describes the main types of transformers as core type and shell type, and their construction. Distribution transformers and power transformers are compared in terms of their typical ratings and applications. The specifications, magnetic circuit, and output equations of transformers are also outlined.
A transformer transfers electrical energy between circuits through electromagnetic induction. It consists of two coils wound around an iron core. An alternating current applied to one coil induces a voltage in the other coil.
The key components are the primary and secondary coils, the magnetic core, and insulation between the coils. The core is made of thin iron laminations to reduce eddy currents. Copper losses from resistance heating vary with load current, while core losses from hysteresis are constant.
Efficiency is maximized when copper and core losses are equal. Maximum efficiency occurs at a load that is the ratio of core to copper losses, and is independent of power factor. Voltage regulation is the change in output voltage from no-load to full

The document discusses the transformer, including its basic principles, construction, and types. A transformer transfers electrical energy from one AC circuit to another by means of a changing magnetic field produced by an input current in its primary winding. This changing magnetic field induces a voltage in a secondary winding. The voltage can be increased or decreased depending on the relative number of turns in the primary and secondary windings. Transformers allow efficient transmission of power over long distances and stepping voltages up or down for use in homes and industry.

The document discusses single phase transformers, including their construction, operation principle, ideal and non-ideal models, and methods to determine component values. A transformer transfers energy between circuits through electromagnetic induction. It has a core made of laminated silicon steel and windings wrapped around the core. Varying the primary current induces a voltage in the secondary according to Faraday's law of induction and the turns ratio. Real transformers have losses accounted for in their equivalent circuit model, which is used to analyze power flow and regulation. Component values are found through short-circuit, open-circuit, and DC tests.

In this ppt, construction and emf equation of transformer is shown and also the types of transformer and its various losses and its application is given in the presentation.
An autotransformer has a single winding that acts as both the primary and secondary winding. It uses a common winding to vary the output voltage from zero to the input voltage by adjusting transformer taps. Autotransformers are more cost effective than two-winding transformers due to savings in copper and core material from using a single winding. However, they do not provide electrical isolation between primary and secondary circuits and have higher fault current levels. Autotransformers are commonly used for voltage regulation in laboratories or motor starting applications.
Presentation about transformer and its types M Tahir Shaheen
- A transformer is a static device that changes electrical power at one voltage level into electrical power at another voltage level through magnetic induction. It does not change the frequency.
- There are two main types of transformers: step-up transformers, which increase voltage, and step-down transformers, which decrease voltage. This is achieved by varying the number of turns in the primary and secondary coils.
- Transformers work on the principle of mutual induction. A changing magnetic field induced by alternating current in the primary coil induces a voltage in the secondary coil.
The document provides information about transformer construction and operation. It discusses how transformers work by transferring electric power from one circuit to another through electromagnetic induction without changing frequency. It describes the main components of transformers including the core, windings, and casing. It also explains shell type and core type construction, three-phase transformer configuration, and the functions of transformer parts like the tank, breather, and bushings.
A transformer transfers electrical power from one circuit to another through magnetic induction. It increases or decreases voltage levels while keeping frequency constant. An ideal transformer has no losses, but a real transformer has resistance and leakage reactance. The performance of a real transformer can be determined through open-circuit and short-circuit tests to find its equivalent circuit parameters.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...indexPub
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.

3. Comparison of core type and shell type
transformers:-
I. Construction:- Core type transformers are much
simpler in design and permit easier assembly and
insulation of winding.
II. Mechanical forces:- The forces produced between
windings is proportional to the product of the currents
carried by them. Very large electromagnetic forces are
produced when secondary winding is short circuited.
Since the windings carry currents in opposite direction,
there exists a force of repulsion between them. Hence,
the inner winding experiences a compressive force and
outer winding experiences a tensile force.
3
4. In a shell type transformer, windings have greater
capability of withstanding forces produced under short
circuit as these windings are surrounded and supported
by the core. But in a core type transformer windings
have a poorer mechanical strength.
4
5. III. Leakage reactance:- In core type transformer large space
required between the high and low voltage winding, it is
not possible to subdivided the winding, while, in shell type
transformer the windings can be easily subdivided by using
sandwich coil. So it is possible to reduce the leakage
reactance of shell type transformers.
IV. Repairs:- The winding of core type transformer is
completely accessible so coils can be easily inspected. And
also core type transformer is easy to dismantle for repair. In
shell type transformer, the coils are surrounded by core,
therefore difficulty in inspection and repair of coils.
V. Cooling:- In core type transformer windings are exposed
and therefore the cooling is better in winding than core. In
case of shell type transformer core is exposed therefore
cooling is better than winding.

The equation which relates the rated kVA output of a
transformer to the area of core and window is called output
equation.
In transformers the output kVA depends on flux density and
ampere-turns.
The flux density is related to core area and the ampere-turns
is related to window area.
The low voltage winding is placed nearer to the core in order
to reduce the insulation requirement.
The space inside the core is called window and it is the space
available for accommodating the primary and secondary
winding.
• The window area is shared between the winding and their
insulations.

Emf per turn equation
To solve the output equation,
kVA = 2.22 or 3.33 or 6.66 f δ AiBm AwKw x 10-3 having two
unknowns Ai and Aw , volt per turn equation is
considered.
Rating of the transformer per phase
Q = VpIp x 10-3 = EpIp x 10-3 kVA (Vp ≈ Ep)
= 4.44 Φm f Tp Ip x 10-3
The term Φm is called the magnetic loading and I1T1 is
called the electric loading. The required kVA can be
obtained by selecting a higher value of Φm and a lesser of
IpTp or vice-versa.
36. 36
As the magnetic loading increases, flux density and hence the
core loss increases and the efficiency of operation decreases.
Similarly as the electric loading increases, number of turns,
resistance and hence the copper loss increases. This leads to
reduced efficiency of operation. It is clear that there is no
advantage by the selection of higher values of IpTp or Φm. For an
economical design they must be selected in certain proportion.
Let, ratio of specific magnetic and electric loading be,
Considering the primary voltage and current per phase

40. Design of Cores
Rectangular core: It is used for core type distribution
transformer and small power transformer for moderate and low
voltages and shell type transformers.
In core type transformer the ratio of depth to width of core varies
between 1.4 to 2.
In shell type transformer width of central limb is 2 to 3 times the
depth of core.
Square and stepped cores: For high voltage transformers, where
circular coils are required, square and stepped cores are used.

50. Window Space Factor: It is the ratio of copper area in the
window to the total window area.
Kw = 10/(30+kV) for transformer rating 50 to 200kVA
Kw = 12/(30+kV) for rating about 1000 kVA
Kw = 8/(30+kV) for rating about 20 kVA
50
51. Window dimensions:
The area of window depend upon total conductor area and
window space factor.
Area of window Aw = total conductor area/ window space factor
= 2.ap Tp/Kw for 1-ph transformer
= 4.ap Tp/Kw for 3-ph transformer
Aw = height of window x width of window = Hw x Ww
The ratio of height to width of window, Hw /Ww is b/w 2 to 4.
51
52. Design of Yoke: The section of yoke can either be taken as
rectangular or it may be stepped.
In rectangular section yokes,
depth of the yoke = depth of core
area of yoke Ay = Dy x Hy
Dy = depth of yoke= width of largest core stamping

57. Estimation of no of turns :
Primary no of turns Tp = Vp / Et
Secondary no of turns Ts = Vs / Et
Estimation of sectional area of windings
Primary current Ip = Q*10-3 /3Vp
Secondary current Is = Q*10-3 /3Vs
Sectional area of primary winding ap = Ip / δ
Sectional area of primary winding as = Is / δ

Mean length of turn of the primary winding Lmt_p= π x mean
diameter of the primary winding
Resistant of the secondary winding/phase rs = (ρLmt) Ts /as ohm
Mean length of turn of the Secondary winding Lmt_s= π x mean
diameter of the secondary winding
Resistance of the transformer referred to primary / phase
Rp = rp + rs
‘ = rp + rs (Tp/Ts)
Resistance of the transformer referred to primary / phase
Rs = rs + rp
‘ = rs + rp (Ts/Tp)
58
59. Reactance of Transformer
Useful flux: It is the flux that links with both primary and
secondary windings and is responsible in transferring the energy
Electro-magnetically from primary to secondary side. The path of
the useful flux is in the magnetic core.
Leakage flux: It is the flux that links only with the primary or
secondary winding and is responsible in imparting inductance to
the windings. The path of the leakage flux depends on the
geometrical configuration of the coils and the neighboring iron
masses.
59
60. If xp and xs are the leakage reactances of the primary and
secondary windings, then the total leakage reactance of the
transformer referred to primary winding
Xp = xp + xs' = xp+ xs (Tp/Ts)2
and total leakage reactance of the transformer referred to primary
winding
Xs = xs + xp' = xs+ xp (Ts/Tp)2

V .R. = Is RsCosΦ2 ± Is Xs SinΦ2 *100
Es
= RsCosΦ2 * 100 ± Xs SinΦ2 *100
Es / Is Es / Is
= %RsCosΦ2 ± %Xs SinΦ2
61
62. No-load current of transformer
The no-load current I0 is the vectorial sum of the magnetizing
current Im and core loss or working component current Ic.
[Function of Im is to produce flux Φm in the magnetic circuit and
the function of Ic is to satisfy the no load losses of the
transformer].
62
63. No load input to the transformer/ph = V1I0 Cosϕo = V1Ic
No load losses as the output is zero and input = output + losses.
Since the copper loss under no load condition is almost negligible,
the no load losses can entirely be taken as due to core loss only. Thus
the core loss component of the no load current
Ic = core loss/ V1 for single phase transformers
Ic = core loss/ 3V1 for three phase transformers
RMS value of magnetizing current Im =
63
64. The magnetic circuit of a transformer consists of both iron and air
path. The iron path is due to legs and yokes and air path is due to the
unavoidable joints created by the core composed of different shaped
stampings. If all the joints are assumed to be equivalent to an air gap
of length lg , then the total ampere turns for the transformer magnetic
circuit is equal to ATfor iron + 800,000lgBm.
ATo = ATfor iron + 800,000lgBm
ATfor iron = 2 atc lc + 2aty ly for single phase transformer
ATfor iron = 3 atc lc + 2aty ly for three phase transformer
lc, ly = length of flux path through core and yoke respectively
atc , aty = mmf/m for flux densities in core and yoke respectively
64
65. 1. In case of a transformer of normal design, the no load current will
generally be less than about 2% of the full load current.
2. No load power factor Cosϕo = Ic/Io and will be around 0.2.
3. Transformer copper losses:
a) The primary copper loss at no load is negligible as Io is very less.
b) The secondary copper loss is zero at no load, as no current flows in the
secondary winding at no load.
4. Core or iron loss:
Total core loss = core loss in legs + core loss in yokes.
Core loss in leg = loss/kg in leg * weight of leg in kg
= loss / kg in leg * volume of the leg (Ai*Hw) * density of
steel or iron used
Core loss in yoke = loss/kg in Yoke * volume of yoke (Ay * mean length of
the yoke) * density of iron used
65
66. Temperature rise of Transformer
•The losses developed in the transformer cores and windings are
converted into thermal energy and cause heating of corresponding
transformer parts.
•The heat dissipation in transformer occurs by Conduction,
Convection and Radiation.
The paths of heat flow in transformer are the following
1. From internal most heated spots of a given part (of core or
winding) to their outer surface in contact with the oil.
2. From the outer surface of a transformer part to the oil that cools
it.
3. From the oil to the walls of a cooler, eg. Wall of tank.
4. From the walls o the cooler to the cooling medium air or water.
66
67. •In the path 1 mentioned above heat is transferred by conduction.
•In the path 2 and 3 mentioned above heat is transferred by
convection of the oil.
•In path 4 the heat is dissipated by both convection and radiation.
In small capacity transformers the surrounding air will be in a
position to cool the transformer effectively and keeps the temperature
rise well with in the permissible limits.
As the capacity of the transformer increases, the losses and the
temperature rise increases. In order to keep the temperature rise with
in limits, air may have to be blown over the transformer. This is not
advisable as the atmospheric air containing moisture, oil particles
etc., may affect the insulation. To overcome the problem of
atmospheric hazards, the transformer is placed in a steel tank filled
with oil.
67
68. Further as the capacity of the transformer increases, the increased
losses demands a higher dissipating area of the tank or a bigger
sized tank. This calls for more space, more volume of oil and
increases the cost and transportation problems. To overcome these
difficulties, the dissipating area is to be increased by artificial
means with out increasing the size of the tank. The dissipating
area can be increased by
1. fitting fins to the tank walls 2. fitting tubes to the tank
3. using corrugated tank 4. using auxiliary radiator
tanks
Since the fins are not effective in dissipating heat and corrugated
tank involves constructional difficulties, they are not much used
now a days. The tank with tubes are much used in practice.
68
69. Heat goes dissipated to the atmosphere from tank by radiation and
convection. It has been found by experiment that a plain tank
surface dissipate 6.0W and 6.5W/m2–oC by radiation and
convection respectively. Thus a total loss dissipation is
12.5W/m2–oC.
Temp rise θ
St = Heat dissipating surface of tank
69
Plain Walled Tanks
70. Design of Tank with Tubes
If the temperature rise of plain tank exceeds the permissible limit
of about 50 degree centigrade, then cooling tubes are to be added
to reduce the temperature rise. With the tubes connected to the
tank, dissipation due to radiation from a part of the tank surface
screened by the tubes is zero. So there is no change in surface as
far as dissipation of heat due to radiation is concerned. Because
the oil when get heated up moves up and cold oil down,
circulation of oil in the tubes will be more. Obviously, this
circulation of oil increases the heat dissipation by convection
about 35%.
70
72. The diameter of tubes, normally used, is 50 mm and they are spaced
at 75 mm
72
73. Cooling of Transformer
The coolants used in transformers are air and oil.
Transformers using air as coolant are called Dry type transformers
while transformers which use oil as coolant are called Oil immersed
transformers.
Methods of Cooling of Transformers: the choice of cooling method
depends upon the size, type of application and the type of conditions
of installation sites.
The symbols designated these methods depend upon medium of
cooling used and type of circulation employed.
Medium:- Air-A, Gas-G, Oil-O, Water-W, Solid insulation-S
Circulation:- Natural-N, Forced-F
