Parts and what they mean
- Laminated soft-iron core (पटलित नर्म लौह क्रोड) — Thin insulated iron sheets: guide almost all the flux from primary to secondary and cut eddy-current loss. Soft iron has low hysteresis loss.
- Primary coil (inner winding) (प्राथमिक कुंडली (भीतरी)) — Input coil, wound directly on the core.
- Secondary coil (outer winding) (द्वितीयक कुंडली (बाहरी)) — Wound over the primary, so nearly all the primary’s flux passes through it — less flux leakage.
- Alternating magnetic flux φ (प्रत्यावर्ती चुंबकीय फ्लक्स φ) — The same flux per turn links both coils (ideal transformer). Its direction reverses every half cycle.
- Input voltage Vp (निवेशी वोल्टता Vp) — AC only — a steady dc gives no changing flux, so no output.
- Load across the secondary (Vs) (द्वितीयक पर भार (Vs)) — Vs = (Ns/Np)Vp and Is = (Np/Ns)Ip for an ideal transformer.
