Figure Q. 1 shows an iron core transformer having a uniform cross-section and a small air gap in the center leg. The relevant data are: N1=200, N2=100, I1=10A, l1=20cm, g=2mm, l2=5cm. Area of cross-section S=4cm^2, μr of core=500.
(a) Sketch the equivalent circuit in terms of mmf and reluctances.
(b) Determine the flux and flux density in the gap g.
(c) Determine the flux linkage with the secondary winding with N2 turns.
(Ans. 0.208mWb, 0.52T; 0.1146Wb)
