What are the three main sources of heat in a transformer?
Expert Solution & Answer
To determine
The three main sources of heat in a transformer.
Explanation of Solution
The transformer is an electrical device that is used to transfer energy in the form of electricity from one circuit to another circuit. The electric energy transformation takes place by the process of electromagnetic induction. The transformer is used to increase or decrease the voltage as per the requirements of the application.
There are three main sources of heat generation in the transformer are listed as below.
- 1) Electric winding of transformer.
- 2) Core material of transformer
- 3) Losses in transformer such as, flux leakage, eddy currents, and hysteresis.

4. In the figure, shaft A made of AISI 1010 hot-rolled steel, is welded to a fixed
support and is subjected to loading by equal and opposite Forces F via shaft B.
Stress concentration factors K₁ (1.7) and Kts (1.6) are induced by the 3mm fillet.
Notch sensitivities are q₁=0.9 and qts=1. The length of shaft A from the fixed
support to the connection at shaft B is 1m. The load F cycles from 0.5 to 2kN and
a static load P is 100N. For shaft A, find the factor of safety (for infinite life) using
the modified Goodman fatigue failure criterion.
