Primary Current given Voltage Transformation Ratio Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Primary Current = Secondary Current*Transformation Ratio
I₁ = I₂*K
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Primary Current - (Measured in Ampere) - Primary Current is the current which is flow in the primary winding of the transformer. The primary current of the transformer is dictated by the load current.
Secondary Current - (Measured in Ampere) - Secondary Current is the current which is flows in the secondary winding of transformer.
Transformation Ratio - The Transformation Ratio of the transformer is used to find the relation between primary voltage and secondary voltage.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Secondary Current: 10.5 Ampere --> 10.5 Ampere No Conversion Required
Transformation Ratio: 1.2 --> No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

I₁ = I₂*K --> 10.5*1.2

Evaluating ... ...

I₁ = 12.6

Secondary Current using Secondary Parameters

Go Secondary Current = (EMF Induced in Secondary-Secondary Voltage)/Impedance of Secondary

Primary Current using Primary Parameters

Go Primary Current = (Primary Voltage-EMF Induced in Primary)/Impedance of Primary

Secondary Current given Secondary Leakage Reactance

Go Secondary Current = Self Induced EMF in Secondary/Secondary Leakage Reactance

Primary Current given Primary Leakage Reactance

Go Primary Current = Self Induced EMF in Primary/Primary Leakage Reactance

< Transformer Circuit Calculators

Equivalent Reactance of Transformer from Secondary Side

Go Equivalent Reactance from Secondary = Secondary Leakage Reactance+Reactance of Primary in Secondary

Equivalent Reactance of Transformer from Primary Side

Go Equivalent Reactance from Primary = Primary Leakage Reactance+Reactance of Secondary in Primary

Primary Leakage Reactance

Go Primary Leakage Reactance = Reactance of Primary in Secondary/(Transformation Ratio^2)

Reactance of Primary Winding in Secondary

Go Reactance of Primary in Secondary = Primary Leakage Reactance*Transformation Ratio^2

Primary Current given Voltage Transformation Ratio Formula

Primary Current = Secondary Current*Transformation Ratio
I₁ = I₂*K

What is transformer transformation ratio?

It is actually defined as a transformer. Transformation Ratio (K) is defined as the ratio of the EMF in the secondary coil to that in the primary coil. Due to the resistance in the winding and some leakage flux, there is some loss in voltage. This is called Voltage Drop.
