EMF Equation of Transformer

EMF Equation of Transformer :

Here is simple method to find out EMF Equation of Transformer:

Let            N1 = No. of turns in primary
                    N2 = No. of turns in secondary
                    Øm = Maximum flux in core in webers = Bm x A
                    f = Frequency of a.c. input in Hz.


The flux increases from it's zero value to maximum value Øm in one quarter of the cycle i.e. in 1/4 f second.

Therefore, r.m.s value of e.m.f./turn = 4.44 Øm volts

Now, r.m.s value of induced e.m.f in the whole primary winding 
                          = ( induced e.m.f. / turn ) x No. of primary winding

                               E1 = 4.44 f N1Øm ------------------- (i)

Similarly, r.m.s. value of e.m.f. induced in secondary is,

                               E2 = 4.44 f N2Øm ------------------- (ii) 

From the above equations (i) and (ii), we get  
E2/E1 = N2/N1 =k

the constant 'K' is called voltage transformation ratio .

1. If N2>N1 i.e. K>1 ,then transformer is called STEP-UP transformer .

2. If N2<N1 i.e. K<1 ,then transformer is called STEP-DOWN transformer .
