Design of Voltage Regulator
A transformer is a device with two or more stationary electrical ckt that are conductively disjointed but magnetically coupled by a common time-varying magnetic Field. Transformer are basically passive device for transforming voltage and current one of the windings, generally termed as secondary winding, transformer energy through the principal of mutual induction and drivers power to the wad. The voltage level at primary and secondary windings are usually different and any increase or decrease of the secondary winding voltage is accompanied by corresponding decrease or increase in current.
Transformer are among the most efficient machines 951. efficiency being common in lower capacity ranges. While efficiency of the ordered of 99 % is achievable in high capacity range. Theoretically there is no upper limit to the power handing capacity, transports constraints, handling facilities etc. Being the limiting factors, the lower limit is governed by the allowable no-load loss.
The physical basis of transformer is mutual induction between two ckt. Linked by a common magnetic field. The primary ckt carrying a current has associated with it as a manifestation of the electrical phenomenon, of current flow, a magnetic field at any pt in the surrounding medium will vary in Both magnitude and direction in accordance with change of current with time. The secondary ckt being in the vicinity of primary ckt will page link some of the magnetic flux produced by primary.
With an alternating primary current and therefore flux, the changing linkages will produced in the secondary winding an e.m.f.
Transformer works on mutual inductance. It has got two winding, namely primary and secondary winding wound on laminated core of silicon steel, it is used for step-up or step down the voltage level in a ckt.
i.e. A transformer is a static device piece of apparatus used for transformer power from one ckt to another without changes in frequency.
When sinusoidal voltage i.e. A.C. voltage applied to primary winding (NL turns) a Flux is produced in the iron core. This Flux page link with secondary winding, so an e.m.f. is induced in secondary winding. According to Faraday?s law of electromagnetic induction. If load is connected to this secondary winding a current start flowing in secondary winding in such way that it opposes the flux produced by primary winding.
E. M. F. EQUATION :-
? = ? m sin ?t = ? ? m sin ?t f
Flux

t

Due to sinusoidal current flowing through in a primary winding a flux almost sinusoidal is produced in the iron whole of waveform as shown above.
If supply frequency is ?F? then the frequency of supply will also ?F?
? since time to complete F cycle = 1 sec.
So time to complete 1 cycle = 1/F sec.
So time to complete Quarter Evolutions = 0.25 x 1/F
= 1/4F second=d
(This is the time in which Flux Rises from 0 to ?m.)
? So average voltage induced in each turn coil = change in Flux
time interval for change in Flux
= ?m ? 0 = ?m = 4.F. ?m
1/4F -0 1/4F
We know that,
Form factor = R.M.S. = 1.11 for W Av.
Average value
So R.M.S. value of voltage induced in each turn coil = 1.11 x 4 x F x ?m
If primary turns = N 1
? R.M.S. voltage induced in primary i.e.

If secondary turns = N2
?R.M.S. voltage induced in secondary i.e.

From equation (1) and (2)

Also for Xmer
Primary Flux Linkage = Secondary Flux Linkage.
Np Ip = Ns .Is
K is known as constant voltage transformation ratio.







PHASOR DIAGRAM ON NO ? LOAD


No load current of Xmer has two components.
i) Magnetizing components (Im OR I?)
ii) Core use components (Ic)
And no ? load primary current (Io) is phasor sum of I? and Ic
OR Io = I? + Ic
(1) Magnetizing component :-
I? is responsible for production of working flux in Xmer core. This current has behind the applied voltage by 900.
(II) Core loss componets is presents
(1) Hysterisis loss (Ph)
(2) Gady current loss (Pe) in the core.
This current is resistive in nature so, It is in phase. With applied voltage

ON LOAD POWER FACTOR OF XMER :-
(1) LAGGING LOAD :- (INDUCTIVE LOAD).

VARIOUS LOSSES IN TRANSFORMER
Transformer losses are divided in to two categories.
(I) CONSTANT LOSSES :-
In which mainly Iron Loss take place. These losses are independent of load current, these are of two tapes.
(1) Hysterisis Loss
(2) Eddy current loss.

(1) Hysterisis Loss :- When alternating current flows through, primary winding, cyclic magnetization and demagntisation of Xmer Core take place. So Heat is produced. Hysterisis loss is proportional to valve of Flux-density and frequency.
Ph ? F. B Max1.6
To minimize hysterisis was CRCTO ? cold Rolled grain oriented steel or silicon steel is used. The permability of (RGO is very high more than 10.000.

II) EDDY CURRENT LOSSES :-
In Xmer primary and secondary windings alternating current Flows as per Faradays Law of electromagnetic induction and lene`s law opposite current are set-up in the Iron core due to which I2R losses takes place in the Iron core. Since this loss is due to Eddy current. It is called as Eddy current loss.


Winding current
Core
Eddy current in Core

It is clear that to Reduce eddy current loss. Eddy current should be loss. So electrical resistance of iron core in the path of eddy current should be more. To increase the electrical resistance of iron core the core is made-up of, thin laminated strips insulated to each other and assembled by nut-bolts.
The thickness of laminated is around 0.3 mm (1/3), also silicon increases the electrical resistance of Xmer core so silicon steel is used. But more is the silicon steel becomes brittle so silicon up to 4 % is added.
Eddy current loss is also dependant upon. Pe ? F2. Bm2
(III) VARIABLE LOSSES :-
This losses depends upon primary and secondary winding resistance and currents flowing through them. RF primary currents Ip, primary Resistance R1 and secondary current R2 and secondary winding Resistance R2. Then total variable loss = Ip2R1 + Ib2R2
This is called variable loss because it is dependant upon load current.
To minimize copper losses primary and secondary winding Resistance should be as small as possible.
REGULATION
When Xmer is loaded with a constant primary voltage, then the secondary terminal voltage drops (assuming lagging power factor ); It will increase if power factor is leading because of its internal resistance and leakage reactance.
Let,
V2 = Secondary terminal voltage at no-load
V2! = Secondary terminal voltage at load
? % R = V2 - V2! x 100
V2
Then % Regulation of a loaded Xmer at any power factor is given as
= ( R Cos? + X sin? ) + ( XCos ? - R sin? )
200
Where R = % of Resistive drop
X = % of reactive drop
COS? = Lagging or leading P.F.







EFFICIENCY
Efficiency of Xmer are
(I) ? = O/P
I/P
= out put
out put + losses
= O/P
O/P + const.loss(Pc) + variable loss (Pcu)

II) % ? = I/P ? losses
R1p
= Input _ Losses
Input Input
% ? = 1 ? losses
Input

Generally the efficiency of Xmer is very high around 96 % to 99 %.








EQUIVALENT CKT OF Xmer :-





















Refer to Secondary


Rc X?



re2 = r2 + r1 ( N2 )2
N1
xe2 = x2 + x1 ( N2 )2
N1
Where,
r1 = Primary winding resistance.
r2 = Secondary winding Resistance.
x1 = Primary winding Reactance.
x2 = Secondary winding Reactance.
RC = Resistance Representing core loss.
X? = Mag Reactance.
N1 and N2 = No of turns primary and secondary windings.



CONDITION FOR MAXM EFFICIENCY OF XMER
We know Iron Loss = Cu loss
EFFICIENCY = Output = Output
I1p Output + Losses
= O/P
O/P + Iron loss + copper loss
? = V2 .I2 cos ?2 ????(1)
V2 .I2 cos ?2 + Pi + I22 re2
For maximum efficiency dx = 0
dI2
so differentiate equation (1)
dx = d V2.I2.cos ?2
dI2 dI2 V2 .I2 cos ?2 + Pi + I22 re2

dx = (V2 .I2 cos ?2 + Pi + I22 re2 )V2cos ?2 - V2cos ?2 (V2 . cos ?2 + 0 + 2I2. re2)
dI2 (V2 I2 . cos ?2 + 0 + 2 I2. re2 )
? (V2 .I2 cos ?2 + Pi + I22 re2 )V2cos ?2 - V2 I2cos ?2 (V2 . cos ?2 + 2I2. re2) = 0

? (V2 .I2 cos ?2 + Pi + I22 re2 ) V2cos ?2 = V2 I2 cos ?2 (V2 . cos ?2 + 2I2. re2)

? V2 .I2 cos ?2 + Pi + I22 re2 = V2 I2 cos ?2 + 2I22. re2

Pi + I22 re2 = 2I22. re2
Pi = I22. re2
? i.e. For maximum efficiency Iron loss is equal to copper loss.

TYPES OF XMER
There are mainly two type XMer are used.
(1) CORE TYPE
(2) SHELL TYPE
The difference between these two XMer are as
CORE TYPE SHELL TYPE



(1) Winding surrounds the core (1) Core surrounds the winding
(2) Winding have poor mechanical (2) Higher Mechanical strength
strength
(3) More leakage reactance (3) Less leakage reactance
(4) Repairs easy (4) Repair difficult
(5) Better cooling of winding (5) Better cooling of core.
Due to easy repairs and better cooling core XMer are mostery more used than shell type XMer.
Kinds of transformations
Voltage transformations
The ratio of primary & Secondary Voltages (V1 & V2 ) is equal to ratio of no of turn in primary & Secondary winding
V1 = N1 N1 = N2
V2 = N2 V1 = V2
V2 = N2 V1
N1
Similarly current transformation
I2 = N1 ? I1 N1 = I2 N2
Similarly Impedance transformation.
V1 = N1 I2 = N1
V2 = N2 I1 = N2

V1 I2 = N1 2
V2 I1 N2
From Ohm?s law secondary winding load res. RL is V2 /I2
? V2 /I2 kinds reflection of RL

V1 = I2

TWO BASIC DESIGN EQUATION
First is voltage equation & second is power capability equation.
P = 0.707 J f WaB x 10-8
V = Applied Voltage
F = form factor
f = frequency
a = Core crass sectional area
N = No of turn on considered wndg
B = flux density per unit area.
W = area of core window in cm2
Voltage Equation
N = 108
V 4 F fa B

N = 1
V 4 F f a B x 10-8
Some time T is made to represent N/V
T = 108
4 F f a B
It is assumed that Equation will be used with. Sinusoidal 9/P & So F is immediately assigned the value of 1.11 this value. Combine with 4 gives 4.44.
In place of 4 F
N = 108
V 4 .44 fa B
This Equation usually move practical for design purpose however to add conservation to them that enable a expressed in inches. & B in gauss.
This conservation is accomplished by including the factor 6.45 in bottom line. (There are 6.45 Sq Cm to Square inch )
? N = 108 = 108
V 4 .44 x 6.45 fa B 28.64 fa B

Or dividing N = 3.49 x 106
V f a B
Apply the factor 6.45 to equation
N = 108
V 25.8 F fa B
Finally let up consider following variant of Equation.
V = 4 F f N ? x 10-8
It this is compared to basic Equation.
? is now being used to replace a x B
B = ?
a
B = flux density
? = total flux
a = cross sectional area of core
? ? = V x 108
4 F f N
Which express total flux in core.

Core Selection :-
All this discussion about alloy, lamination, toroids, cut cores, metal powder, ceramic & many chart is fine, interesting even later the moment of trust must arrive ? a choice must be made from wetter of possibilities.
It you want to design power XMer . This statement immediately narrow the search because power XMer is a high flux application that is generally accepted that the core material for power XMer should be run at high flux density at possible in order to keep XMer small & less costly.
Volt ampear ratings :-
It the load is resistive in nature then they have power factor 1.0. It P.F. less than 1.0 then such load require XMer of larger volt. Ampear capacity than that indicated by load expressed in watt motors for example have power factor less than 1.0.
Other type of XMer require a greater voltampear capacity because the current in wndg are not sinusoidal & develop greater heating in the copper.

Optimum Design
Transformer may designed to make one of the following quantities minimum.
i) Total Volume ii) Total weight iii) Total cost iv) Total losses
In general these requirements are contact directly and it is normally to satisfied to only one of them. All these quantity varies with ratio r = ?m / AT. If we chose the high value of r , then flux will become larger and consequently large core cross section is needed which result in higher volume, weight and cost of iron and gives higher iron loss.
On the other hand owing to decrease in the value of AT the volume and cost of cu required decrease and also the I2R loss decrease. Thus we conclude that the value of r if a controlling factor for the above mentioned quantities.


Design for minimum loss or Max. efficiency
Total loss at full load = Pi + Pc
At any Fraction x of full load, the total loss are Pi + x2 Pc
If Q is the o/p of full load, the output of fraction load is Qx
? Efficiency at O/p xQ,
i.e. ?X = x Q
xQ + Pi + x2Pc
This efficiency max. when d ? x = 0
dx
Differentiating ?x we have
d? x = ( xQ + Pi + x2Pc ) Q ? xQ. ( Q + 2 x Pc)
dx ( xQ + Pi + x2Pc )2

for max. eff. ( xQ + Pi + r2Pc ) ? xQ ( Q + 2xPc ) = 0
? Pi = x2 .Pc
So that the mar. efficiency it obtained when the variable losses are equal to the constant losses.

Design of windings
No. of turns in primary winding.
Tp = Voltage of Primary winding = Vp
Voltage per turn Et
? N. of turn in secondary winding

Ts = Voltage of Primary winding = Vs
Voltage per turn Et
The number of turn of an low voltage winding is usually determined in a preliminary design by adjusting the voltage / turn to get the number of l.v windg. Turn per phase Al an integer.
Tl.v = Tl.v = an integer

The number of h.v. wndg per turn per phase is
Th.v = Vh.v .Tl.v
Vl.v
Note :- If the tapping are located in the middle part of an h.v. wndg, the no. of wndg. turn must be even to ensure the symmetry of winding. For a wndg. with tapping it is necessary to have a proper turn ratio or voltage ratio not only on the principal tapping but on the other taps us well. Therefore turns should be selected individually current in primary end.
Therefore turns should be selected indiously current in primary winding
