The magnitude value of the particular Voltage or the induced EMF<\/a> in a transformer can be discovered by the EMF equation of transformer. When a supply of alternating current (AC) is operated on the basic winding of the transformer which is introduced as magnetized current, it generates the alternating type of flux in the center of a transformer. The generated alternating type of flux in the basic section of the transformer becomes related with the second part of the transformer by specific induction as it is naturally alternating flux, there should be a level of flux variation based on Faraday\u2019s law<\/a> of electromagnetic effect which presents that if a coil or conductor relates with any flux, there should be an induced electromotive force in it.<\/p>\n

What is the Emf Equation of Transformer?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

EMF Equation of transformer can be evaluated in a very simple method. One alternating electric supply is operated practically on the main winding in the electrical power transformer, and according to this, magnetizing flow within the basic winding which generating alternative flux in the base of the transformer. This flux influences both secondary and primary windings. There should be enough value of change in flux because this flux is alternating.<\/p>\n

As the current supply operated on the base of the system is sinusoidal, the flux produced by it will also be in this form. So, the flux operation can be considered as a sine function. The derivative of that function will mathematically present a performance for the value of flux variation that is linked to time. This final function is like a cosine function because<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\\frac{dsin\\theta }{dt}=cos\\theta <\/span>\n

 <\/p>\n

So, if we extract the mathematic term for the RMS value of this cosine function and improve it with the turns number of the winding, we can easily derive the RMS expression of specific EMF and EMF equation of transformer.<\/p>\n

As discussed before, the source of alternating current in a transformer is operated to the first winding. The current in the first winding which was introduced as the magnetizing current generates alternating flux based on this effect in the center of the transformer. This alternating flux can influence the second winding, and an EMF will be produced in the secondary winding according to this phenomenon. The magnitude of this particular EMF can be calculated by employing the following EMF equation of the transformer.<\/p>\n

When a sinusoidal wave is operated on the basic winding of a transformer, alternating flux \u03a6m<\/sub> is generated in the iron core of the device. This special flux affects both secondary and primary windings and the operation of them is like a sine function. Visit here<\/a> to see the fundamental operation of a transformer clearly.<\/p>\n

The state of flux modification based on time can be calculated mathematically. The main principle of the EMF Equation of transformer is presented below. Let<\/p>\n

\u03a6m<\/sub>: the maximum amount of flux is presented in Weber unit<\/p>\n

f: the source frequency based on Hz<\/p>\n

N1<\/sub>: turns number in the first winding<\/p>\n

N2<\/sub>: turns number in the second winding<\/p>\n

\u03a6: flux per turn based on Weber unit<\/p>\n

\"emf

As presented in the last figure, the flux varies from + \u03a6m<\/sub> to \u2013 \u03a6m<\/sub> in 1\/2f seconds or half a period. According to Faraday\u2019s Law, consider E1<\/sub> as the emf produced in the basic winding<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

{E}_{1}= -\\frac{d\\psi }{dt}<\/span>\n

 <\/p>\n

Where<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\\psi ={N}_{1}\\Phi<\/span>\n

 <\/p>\n

Therefore,<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

{E}_{1}={-N}_{1}\\frac{d\\Phi }{dt}<\/span>\n

 <\/p>\n

AS \u03d5 is generated based on the AC supply<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\\Phi={\\Phi }_{m}. sin\\omega t<\/span>\n

 <\/p>\n

{E}_{1}={-N}_{1}\\frac{d}{dt}({\\Phi }_{m}sin\\omega t)<\/span>\n

 <\/p>\n

{E}_{1}={-N}_{1}\\omega {\\Phi }_{m}cos\\omega t<\/span>\n

 <\/p>\n

{E}_{1}={N}_{1}\\omega {\\Phi }_{m}(sin\\omega t-\\frac{\\pi }{2})<\/span>\n

 <\/p>\n

So, the produced emf lags the flux by 90o<\/sup>. Therefore, the maximum rate of emf can be evaluated as:<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

{E}_{1max}={N}_{1}\\omega {\\Phi }_{m}<\/span>\n

 <\/p>\n

But<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\\omega =2\\pi f<\/span>\n

 <\/p>\n

so;<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

{E}_{1max}=2\\pi f {N}_{1}{\\Phi }_{m}<\/span>\n

 <\/p>\n

RMS value or Root Mean Square can be calculated as:<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

{E}_{1}=\\frac{{E}_{1max}}{\\sqrt{2}}<\/span>\n

 <\/p>\n

By using the value of E1max<\/sub> in the last equation, we can get<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

{E}_{1}=\\sqrt{2}\\pi f{N}_{1}{\\Phi }_{m}<\/span>\n

 <\/p>\n

If we put the value of \u03c0 = 3.14 in the previous equation, we can obtain the value of E1<\/sub> as<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

{E}_{1}=4.44 f{N}_{1}{\\Phi }_{m}<\/span>\n

 <\/p>\n

Similarly;<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

{E}_{2}=\\sqrt{2}\\pi f{N}_{2}{\\Phi }_{m}<\/span>\n

 <\/p>\n

Or<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

{E}_{2}=4.44 f{N}_{2}{\\Phi }_{m}<\/span>\n

 <\/p>\n

Now, based on the equation of E1<\/sub> and E2<\/sub>, we can obtain:<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\\frac{{E}_{2}}{{E}_{1}}=\\frac{{N}_{2}}{{N}_{1}}=K<\/span>\n

 <\/p>\n

The above formula is introduced the turn coefficient where K is called the transformation ratio.<\/p>\n

Voltage Ratio of Transformer<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The voltage ratio of transformer is the other term for this above-stated rate when it is presented as the coefficient of the secondary and primary voltages of the transformer.<\/p>\n

Turns Ratio of Transformer<\/strong><\/h3>\n

As the voltage in secondary and basic windings of the transformer is instantly related to the number of turns in the determined winding, so the transformation ratio of the instrument is occasionally presented in the ratio of turns and introduced as the turns ratio of the transformer. The \u201cK\u201d coefficient is called the ratio of voltage transformation.<\/p>\n

If N2<\/sub> > N1<\/sub>, or K > 1, so the transformer is introduced as the step-up type of transformer.<\/p>\n

If N2<\/sub> < N1<\/sub>, or K < 1, so the transformer is known as the step-down type of transformer.<\/p>\n

Where,<\/p>\n

N1<\/sub> is the basic turns number of the coil in the instrument, and N2<\/sub> is the secondary turns number.<\/p>\n

The previous equations of E1 and E2 can also be presented as shown below using the next formula:<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

{\\Phi }_{m}={B}_{m} \\times {A}_{i}<\/span>\n

 <\/p>\n

where the Ai<\/sub> coefficient is the iron section and Bm<\/sub> is the maximum amount of flux density.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

{E}_{1}=4.44{N}_{1}f{B}_{m}{A}_{i}<\/span>\n

 <\/p>\n

And<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

{E}_{2}=4.44{N}_{2}f{B}_{m}{A}_{i}<\/span>\n

 <\/p>\n

Especially, for a sinusoidal function, Form factor can be defined as:<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\\frac{R.M.S Value}{Average Value}=FormFactor=1.11<\/span>\n

 <\/p>\n

Here, the calculated form factor is 1.11.<\/p>\n
