Ideal TransformerTransformer Model
Simplified to this as Rm and Xm are high compared to Winding impedance

Which evolves to this in Load flows and fault studies as no load losses don’t contribute to fault currents and Rw is small as we want low loss transformers

The turns ratio is determined by the voltage ratio but you have to be careful as we have to consider the transformer connection delta delta, delta wye, wye wye. More to come on this

What is Transformer NoiseWhat is Transformer Noise
We have have heard the humming of a transformerWe have have heard the humming of a transformerIt is cause by the alternating current cause the core It is cause by the alternating current cause the core steel to expand and contract 2 times during one steel to expand and contract 2 times during one cycle of AC.cycle of AC.Therefore the fundamental frequency of the noise Therefore the fundamental frequency of the noise at 60 Hz is 120 Hz.at 60 Hz is 120 Hz.Because the steel is not well confined in some Because the steel is not well confined in some areas you can get multiple vibrations producing areas you can get multiple vibrations producing 3,5,7 harmonic also.3,5,7 harmonic also.Fans and pumps also produce transformer noise.

Voltage Regulation DefinitionVoltage Regulation Definition
Regulation is defined as the change in Regulation is defined as the change in secondary (output) voltage, expressed in secondary (output) voltage, expressed in % of rated secondary voltage, which % of rated secondary voltage, which occurs when the rated occurs when the rated kVAkVA output at a output at a specified power factor is reduced to zero, specified power factor is reduced to zero, with the primary impressed terminal with the primary impressed terminal voltage maintained constant. voltage maintained constant.
