How do you draw an open and close circuit?
Engineers often use 'models' to represent the behaviour of complicated devices such as machines. In the case of transformers, these 'models' are more-usually called 'equivalent circuits' -schematic diagrams, using simple resistors and inductors, to simulate the operation of the transformer, and to help us construct the transformer's phasor diagrams. The simplest equivalent circuit, which can be considered a 'first approximation' of the transformer's behavioiur, is commonly called an 'ideal transformer', and only accounts for the transformer's ability to step up or step down the primary voltage and secondary current. The 'second approximation' equivalent circuit, takes into account the core losses and magnetising current. The 'third approximation' equivalent circuit takes into account the resistance and leakage reactance of the primary and secondary circuits, responsible for the regulation of the transformer, and it takes into account both the core losses and the copper losses. The 'third approximation' equivalent circuit, therefore, can be considered the most accurate equivalent circuit.
Would you install three-phase transformer or bank of three single phase transformer in a large power station and justify by comparing the two schemes?
A three-phase transformer bank is often used in power stations because it is easier to construct and transport very large single-phase transformers, compared with constructing and transforming an equivalent-capacity three-phase transformer.
What type of transformer has only a single winding?
the auto transformer is the one winding transformer. it ismaily used in practical purpose.
Can 3 single phase transformers can replace 1 three phase transformer?
Yes, you can use three single phase transformers on three phase applications and interconnect them to serve as a single transformer or you could use one single phase transformer fed from two of the three lines in a step down application.
What is the current of 1MVA transformer?
This depends on the voltage, and whether it is a three phase or single phase transformer.
