Experiment-4
To identify the constructional details of single phase & three phase
transformer
AIM: To obtain the constructional details of single phase and three phase transformer
Theory:
Single phase transformer:
A TRANSFORMER is a device that transfers electrical energy from one circuit to another by
electromagnetic induction (transformer action). The electrical energy is always transferred
without a change in frequency, but may involve changes in magnitudes of voltage and current.
Because a transformer works on the principle of electromagnetic induction, it must be used
with an input source voltage that varies in amplitude. There are many types of power that fit
this description; for ease of explanation and understanding, transformer action will be
explained using an ac voltage as the input source.
Construction:
Two coils of wire (called windings) are wound on some type of core material. In some cases
the coils of wire are wound on a cylindrical or rectangular cardboard form. In effect, the core
material is air and the transformer is called an AIR-CORE TRANSFORMER. Transformers
used at low frequencies, such as 60 hertz and 400 hertz, require a core of low-reluctance
magnetic material, usually iron. This type of transformer is called an IRON-CORE
TRANSFORMER. Most power transformers are of the iron-core type.
The principle parts of a transformer and their functions are:
The CORE, which provides a path for the magnetic lines of flux.
The PRIMARY WINDING, which receives energy from the ac source.
The SECONDARY WINDING, which receives energy from the primary winding and delivers
it to the load.
The ENCLOSURE, which protects the above components from dirt, moisture, and mechanical
damage.
Core:
There are two main shapes of cores used in laminated-steel-core transformers. One is the
HOLLOWCORE, so named because the core is shaped with a hollow square through the
center. This shape of core. Notice that the core is made up of many laminations of steel it shows
how the transformer windings are wrapped around both sides of the core.
Windings:
As stated above, the transformer consists of two coils called WINDINGS which are wrapped
around a core. The transformer operates when a source of ac voltage is connected to one of the
windings and a load device is connected to the other. The winding that is connected to the
source is called the PRIMARY WINDING. The winding that is connected to the load is called
the SECONDARY WINDING. The primary is wound in layers directly on a rectangular
cardboard form.
Three phase transformer:
A three phase transformer is used to transfer a large amount of power. The three phase
transformer is required to step-up and step-down the voltages at various stages of a power
system network. The three phase transformer is constructed in two ways.
1. Three separate single phase transformer is suitably connected for three phase operation.
2. A single three-phase transformer in which the cores and windings for all the three phases
are merged into a single structure.
The three single-phase transformer can be used as a three-phase transformer when their
primary and secondary winding are connected to each other. The three phase transformer
supply has many advantages as compared to three single phase units like it requires very less
space and also very lighter smaller and cheaper in size. The three phase transformer is mainly
classified into two types, i.e., the core type transformer and the shell type transformer.
Core Type Three Phase Transformer
Consider a three single phase core type transformer positioned at 120° to each other as shown
in the figure below. If the balanced three-phase sinusoidal voltages are applied to the
windings, the fluxes φa, φb and φc will also be sinusoidal and balanced. If the three legs
carrying these fluxes are combined, the total flux in the merged leg becomes zero. This leg
can, therefore, be removed because it carries the no flux. This structure is not convenient for
the core.
The core of the three phase transformer is usually made up of three limbs in the same plane.
This can be built using stack lamination. The each leg of this core carries the low voltage and
high voltage winding. The low voltage windings are insulated from the core than the high
voltage windings.
The low windings are placed next to the core with suitable insulation between the core and the
low voltage windings. The high voltage windings are placed over the low voltage windings
with suitable insulation between them. The magnetic paths of the leg a and c are greater than
that of leg b, the construction is not symmetrical, and there is a resultant imbalance in the
magnetising current.
Shell type Three Phase Transformer
The shell type 3-phase transformer can be constructed by stacking three single phase shell
transformer as shown in the figure below. The winding direction of the central unit b is made
opposite to that of units a and c. If the system is balanced with phase sequence a-b-c, the flux
will also be balanced
The magnitude of this combined flux is equal to the magnitude of each of its components. The
cross section area of the combined yoke is same as that of the outer leg and top and bottom
section of the yoke. The imbalance in the magnetic path has very little effect on the
performance of the three shell-type transformers. The windings of the shell type three phase
transformer are either connected in delta or star as desired.
