Electrical Transformers
A transformer electrical machine without moving parts, which used
to change the value alternating voltage. 5.
A transformer will only work alternating supply, will not normally
work from D. supply such battery.17 consists two coils
called the primary and secondary coils windings, wound a
common core. The advantage the electromagnet
when compared with the permanent magnet that the magnetism the
electromagnet can switched and off functional switch control-
ling the coil current.16 shows the structure
and one application the solenoid.
● transformer such that shown Fig. The iron core the transformer not solid but made
up very thin sheets called laminations, improve efficiency.16
The solenoid and one practical application: the relay. Winding the coil around a
soft iron core increases the flux density because the lines magnetic flux
concentrate the magnetic material.C.
