Applying turn ratio to a transformer is to step up or step down voltage in an AC system. If you apply a 120V/60Hz (US outlet) to a 3:1 tranformer, you will output a 40V/60Hz signal as the primary side (input) has 3 times the turns (windings) as the secondary (output). From the law of conservation of energy, the secondary side (40V) will now have 3 times the current than the input.
120V x 3A = 360 Watts
40V x 9A = 360 Watts
Example: 40V AC Motor with 9A has more torque than a 120V AC Motor with 3 Amps as current is porportional to torque. Voltage is porportional to speed.

. Which type of full-wave rectifier has the greater output voltage for the same input voltage and transformers turn ratio?
well when you see on basis of output voltage the centre tapped transformers is .
Does a transformer have two coils if yes how is the voltage calculated?
the most basic transformers have at least two coils, a primary and a secondary. A transformers nameplate will provide you with the max allowed voltage and current, as well as a voltage per turn ratio. for example a step down transformer could have a primary of 120 volts and a secondary of 24 volts this would give you a ratio of 5:1.
Why not stepup transformer is not used in rectifiers?
Rectifiers turn A/C into D/C, but transformers can only run on A/C.
What is turndown ratio of burner in gas fired furnaces?
Turn down ratio is the maximum to minimum heat output.Turn down ratio for direct gas fired burners is 25:1, which means that the burner can modulate from 4% to 100% of full fire. Indirect gas turn down ratio is typically 2:1, which limits the heat output from 50% to 100% of full fire. Mukesh Yadav
What is the turn ratio of a transformer if the primary voltage is 240V and the secondry is 12V volts?
240 / 12 = 20
. Which type of full-wave rectifier has the greater output voltage for the same input voltage and transformers turn ratio?
well when you see on basis of output voltage the centre tapped transformers is .
What are the principles of voltage reduction in auto transformer?
A: Transformers are designed with a turn ratio of 1:xxx the ratio can be 1.001 for instance then 1 volt input will transform into 1milli volt out that is the basics
How Calculate turn ratio on step up transformers?
For example: if the primery winding on the transformer were 250 turns and the 1250 turns on the secondary, what is the turn ratio? Well what you do is you take 1250 divide that by 250 will give you 5. So the answer would be 1:5 since 1 will be on the top of the 250 and the 5 would be on the top of the 1250. IN ALL STEP UP TRANSFORMERS HAVING A TURNS RATIO MORE THAN ONE...BECAUSE IT STEPS UP VOLTAGE.

How do you measure transformer turn ratio by turn ratio set?
Read the manual
What kind of car does Ratchet from transformers prime turn into?
an ambulance
How do you turn a decimal and ratio?
It depends on what you wish to turn it into!
What are facts about a Transformer turn ratio?
Typically a transformer is designed for a specific turn ratio x:y the fact is that is only true if the power is held as designed for that ratio
What are some examples of Filipinism words?
Some examples of Filipinism words include "comfort room" for bathroom, "salvage" for extrajudicial killing, "ref" for refrigerator, and "open/close the light" for turn on/turn off the light.
Why did transformers prime end?
Transformers: Cybertron ended on a cliffhanger so that people will turn in to watch the next season. This is how most shows end their season.
How to turn a mixed number to a ratio?
To turn a mixed number into a ratio, you must divide each number into a common denominator.
What year will there be a transformers 4?
There is a HUGE possibility then again there isn't. The press has word that Shia Lebouf may not be coming back, but is Transformers: Dark of the Moon is a BiG money-making turn out why wouldn't he? Also, Micheal Bay says he wants to slow down for a moment and see the turn out of Transformers 3 then he will go on to decide whether or not to continue with the Transformers sequel. BTW : Transformers 3 is a GREAT movie GOT to see it because I would loveee to have another twist and turn to it in the fourth one soo it is up to us people lets get a move on ! :D
