What are the two coils in a transformer?

primary and secondary coilsAnswerPrimary and secondary windings.


What will be the voltage 10 coils on the primary side with an input of 120 volts and 2 coils on the secondary side?

In order to determine the output voltage of a transformer, you need to specify the turns ratio between primary and secondary. You did not do that, nor did you provide any other information that could be used to deduce the output, so only a general answer can be given. The output voltage of each secondary is 10 volts (the input voltage) times the number of turns on the primary divided by the number of turns on the secondary. If, for instance, the ratio was 1:3, then the output would be 30 volts. Since there are two secondary windings, this calculation is performed independently for each secondary.


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.


What does the inside of a 3 phase transformer look like?

A three phase transformer has three primary coils and three secondary coils wound on a laminated iron core shaped like the capital letter 'E'. Each pair of primary and secondary coils are wound concentrically onto each leg of the 'E'. There is a straight , laminated core segment, that connects across all three legs of the 'E', forming a circuit path for the magnetic flux. The primary and secondary coils can be arranged as an autotransformer, with the primary and secondary coils connected end-to-end, with a common conductor tapped at the interconnection, or as separate coils with two separate connections for each coil.


What is the difference between electronic and magnetic transformer?

All transformers are magnetic. A transformer is two (or more) coils of wire wound together. The varying magnetic field created by the primary winding induces a current in the secondary coils proportional to the ratio of the number of turns. You're probably refering to a switchmode powersupply as a "electronic transformer" (which is bad nomenclature, by the way). A switch mode supply actually contains a normal transformer in its core, along with circuitry to allow for a wide input fange and a narrow output range.

Why LVDT is called linear and differential?

The magnitude of the output voltage is proportional to the distance moved by the core (up to its limit of travel), which is why the device is described as having a "linear" response to displacement. The coils are connected in reverse series, so that the output voltage is the difference (hence "differential") between the two secondary voltages.


Are the primary and secondary coils in a transformer physically linked or is there space between the two?

Both the primary and secondary wires have an insulated coating that allows them to be wound over top of each other on an iron core. The AC current flowing in the primary creates a magnetic field in the iron that then induces a voltage in the secondary based on the turns ratio between the primary and secondary coils.


Why transformer is called static device?

A transformer has two coils wound over a core. Depending on use, the two coils are named primary and secondary coils. The primary and secondary coils are linked magnetically (not electrically except in case of auto transformers) called mutual coupling. When the primary coil is excited with alternating voltage(A.C), varying magnetic flux is produced which links with the secondary coil and thus a voltage is induced in the secondary coil. Since there is no rotating or moving part utilized for the above process hence transformer is called a static device. The word static used here should not be confused for static charges. It only signifies "not moving"

How to test ignition coils?

Testing the coil packs on my 1992 Grand Prix? I am having problems with my ignition system; specifically a misfire that gets worse when rpm rises. The control module tested OK, also the plugs and wires. I tested the 3 separate coils in the pack and the resistance of the primary and secondary circuits was well within normal specs, BUT on one of the coils there is also current flow between the secondary and primary circuits; the other two have no such connection. I know that would be normal for the older single coil type coils but what about these? Is there SUPPOSED to be an electrical connection between the two circuits or is this a short? Each separate coil has two separate high voltage towers going to different spark plugs. According to my Haynes manual they are connected to the opposite sides of the secondary high voltage circuit but it says nothing about testing for an electrical connection between the primary and secondary windings or whether there should be. Do I have one bad coil, or TWO?


What is winding transformer?

A winding is the name given each of the coils wound around the transformer's core. A basic transformer has two windings, termed the primary winding (connected to the supply) and the secondary winding (connected to the load).


If a magnet is put inside one coil of wire a voltage is produced. What will happen if the magnet is put inside two coils of wire?

I would expect a voltage in both coils of wire.Note that, if the two coils are connected, the voltages (and corresponding currents) in the coils can interact. Also, if the two coils are NOT connected, they can STILL interact, since a current will produce its own magnetic field.


What does the lines between primary and secondary coils of transformer signify?

The voltage in a transformer is transferred from primary coil to secondary coil through electromagnetic induction. There is no physical connectivity between these two. instead they are linked by an alternating magnetic field created in the soft-iron core of the transformer.The two lines in the middle of the circuit symbol represent the core of the transformer.
