Three-Phase Transformers and AC Machines
Introduction
Electricity has been used since more than a century and the number of applications requiring electricity is increasing constantly. As a result, the electrical power demand has been rising since the early use of electricity. Many reasons explain why electricity is so popular. One reason is the great versatility of electricity. We use it every day for cooling, heating, lighting, driving (through electric motors) etc. Furthermore, many apparatuses that are part of our everyday life, such as telephones, televisions, personal computers, etc., require electrical power. Another reason that explains the constantly rising demand for electricity lies in the fact that it is a highly reliable source of energy.
The Dynamics of Heat: Thermodynamics and Heat Transfer
Three-Phase Transformers
An electrical transformer is a passive machine that transfers electrical energy from one circuit to another using a magnetic flux to induce an electromotive force. Transformers are used to increase (step-up) or decrease (step-down) voltages without changing the frequency of the electric current. Also, since the two circuits or coils are electrically isolated from each other, transformers can be used for isolation. This is particularly useful for signal processing circuits.
