EMF Equation of a Transformer

The primary winding of a transformer excited by alternating voltage V1, it produce an alternating flux ϕ.

EMF EQUATION OF A TRANSFORMER

The primary winding of a transformer excited by alternating voltage V1, it produce an alternating flux ϕ. The primary winding has N1 number of turns. The flux links the secondary winding through the common magnetic core. It produces induced emf in the secondary. Let us derive the equation for E1 and E2.


N1 = no.of turns in primary

N2 = no.of turns in secondary

ϕm = maximum flux in core in webers

=Bm × A

ƒ = frequency of AC input in Hz

As the Figure 3.48 shows, flux increases from its zero value to maximum value ϕm in one quater of the cycle.

Average rate of change of flux 

4ƒϕm wb/s

rate of change of flux per turn means induced emf in volts.

Average emf/turn = 4ƒϕm volts

If flux ϕ varies sinusoidally, then rms value of induced emf is obtained by multiplying the average value with form factor.

From factor = rms value/average value = 1.11

rms value of emf/turn= 1.11 x 4ƒϕm

= 4.44 ƒϕm volts

RMS value of the induced emf in the whole of primary winding

= [induced emf/turn] × No.of primary winding

= 4.44 ƒϕm N1

E1 = 4.44 ƒBm A N1 ……….(1)

Similarly rms value of the emf induced in secondary is

E2 = 4.44 ƒ N2 ϕm

E2 = 4.44 ƒ Bm AN2………….(2)

From equation (1) and (2) that

E1/N1 = E2/N2 = 4.44 ƒ ϕm

It means that emf/turn is the same in both the primary and secondary windings.

In an ideal transformer on no-load

V1 = E1 and E2 = V2.
