Losses in Transformer

The power losses in a transformer are of two types: (i) Core or Iron Losses (Pi): Iron or core losses consist of: Pi $$ P_i = \text{Hysteresis loss} + \text{Eddy current loss}\quad = \text{Constant losses} $$ These can be determine by open circuit test . Hysteresis Loss: where: Eaddy Current Loss: $$ Khf ^{2}\mathrm{B}_{m}^{2}t^{2}watt/m^{3} = … Read more
