25
Types of transformer
``` Closed core Autotransformer Shell type Air core Open core ```
26
Built with a square core of ferromagnetic material
Closed core
27
Electrical transformer with one winding
Autotransformer
28
Single coil acting on itself
Auto prefix
29
Most efficient type of transformer Used two closed core
Shell type transformer
30
Does not have a ferromagnetic core to link the prinary and secodary coils
Air core transformer
31
Primary and secondary are wound on one cylindrical core Highly inefficient
Open core transformer
32
Change in voltage is _________ to the ratio of number of turns
Directlt proportional
33
Turns ratio =
Ns / Np
34
Transformer with a turn ratio greater than 1
Step up transformer
35
Used to produce high kVp for xray
Step up transformer
36
Turns ratio os less than 1
Step down transformer
37
Transformer law
Vs / Vp = Ns / Np
38
Transformer law and current
Is / Ip = Np / Ns | Np/ Ns =1/ TR
