25
Symbol of magnetic flux
Phi
26
Amount of magnetic field passing through a given surface
magnetic flux
27
Square core of ferromagnetic material
Closed-core transformer
28
Transformer with only one winding
Autotransformer
29
Refers to single coil acting on it
Auto prefix
30
Single winding acts as
Both primary and secondary
31
Used when small step up or step down is required
Autotransfomer
32
Made with two closed core, more efficient
Shell type transformer
33
Does not have ferromagnetic core to link primary and secondary
Air-core transformer
34
Primary and secondary are wound on one cylindrical core
Open-core transformer
35
Directly proportional to the turns ratio
Change in voltage
36
Turns ratio is greater than 1
Step up transformer
37
Number of turns in secondary is larger than the primary
Step up
38
Turns ratio is less than 1
Step down
39
Discover the property of induction
Joseph Henry and Michael Faraday (1880s)
