  2. Stacking factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stacking_factor

    Stacking factors are typically 0.95 or higher for transformer cores [4] and machine stators. [5] However, cores made from amorphous metal have a stacking factor of around 0.8, compared to 0.96 for silicon steel. [1] A related concept in transformer design is window space factor. This is defined as the ratio of the area occupied by the copper ...

  3. Mathematics of three-phase electric power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematics_of_three-phase...

    An important property of three-phase power is that the instantaneous power available to a resistive load, = =, is constant at all times.Indeed, let = = To simplify the mathematics, we define a nondimensionalized power for intermediate calculations, =

  4. Zigzag transformer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zigzag_transformer

    A conventional six-winding, grounding transformer or zigzag bank, [1] with the same winding and core quantity as a conventional three-phase transformer, can also be used in zigzag winding connection. In all cases the first coil on each zigzag winding core is connected contrariwise to the second coil on the next core.

  5. Per-unit system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Per-unit_system

    First, let the base power (S base) of each end of a transformer become the same. Once every S is set on the same base, the base voltage and base impedance for every transformer can easily be obtained. Then, the real numbers of impedances and voltages can be substituted into the per-unit calculation definition to get the answers for the per-unit ...

  6. Current transformer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Current_transformer

    A current transformer has a primary winding, a core, and a secondary winding, although some transformers use an air core. While the physical principles are the same, the details of a "current" transformer compared with a "voltage" transformer will differ owing to different requirements of the application.

  7. Symmetrical components - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symmetrical_components

    The basic idea is that an asymmetrical set of N phasors can be expressed as a linear combination of N symmetrical sets of phasors by means of a complex linear transformation. [1] Fortescue's theorem (symmetrical components) is based on superposition principle , [ 2 ] so it is applicable to linear power systems only, or to linear approximations ...

  8. Voltage transformer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voltage_transformer

    The circuit diagram for a simple capacitor voltage transformer. In its most basic form, the device consists of three parts: a two capacitor voltage divider across which the transmission line, an inductive element to tune the device to the line frequency, and a voltage transformer to isolate and further step down the voltage for metering devices ...

  9. Transformer types - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transformer_types

    A planar transformer Exploded view: the spiral primary "winding" on one side of the PCB (the spiral secondary "winding" is on the other side of the PCB) Manufacturers either use flat copper sheets or etch spiral patterns on a printed circuit board to form the "windings" of a planar transformer, replacing the turns of wire used to make other ...
