How can you get 3 phase supply from single phase supply by using only transformers?

You cannot. By definition, the potential of each line must be displaced from each other by 120 electrical degrees, and this is only achievable from a three-phase source.

What is the advantage of an open delta transformer?
An open-delta connection is a method of providing a three-phase supply, using two single-phase transformers. It is particularly useful if , say, one single-phase transformer, part of a three single-phase transformers forming a three-phase transformer bank, becomes damaged -allowing the two remaining transformers to provide a temporary three-phase supply to the load. The drawback with this connection is that the capacity of the transformer bank is reduced, and it can only provide a lower load current.
Should all 3 phases of a motor draw the same amperage?
Yes. they should. The windings in a three phase motor are identical, and provided they are fed with a supply that has the phases at the correct voltage, and at the correct 'phase angles' to each-other, they should each draw the same current from each supply line. (Motor windings are a 'balanced' load - they will all draw the same current from the lines if the supply is okay and the windings are connected correctly, and have no shorts or opens in them.) Some three phase motors can be connected to run off of a single phase line, using capacitors to give phase shifts to simulate 3 phase. This is an 'unbalanced' 3 phase supply as far as the motor is concerned, and while it WILL work, the motor will develop less staring torque, less full load power, and more noise - and it WILL draw different currents in each 'phase' while running.
Why a single phase induction motor is not self starting?
Single phase induction motor is not self starting because, when the main winding is excited from a single phase supply, it produces an alternating magnetic field instead of rotating magnetic field in two phase and 3 phase induction motor. According to double field revolving theory any alternating vector can be resolved into two vectors rotating in opposite directions, each having magnitude equal to one half the magnitude of the actual vector. The vectors will be rotating in such a way that their resultant will be zero at every instant. Thus a single phase induction motor fails to produce a net starting torque, and is not self starting.It can be made self starting by any of the methods below1) By using an aux winding in series with a very high resistance2) using two capacitors,in series with the aux wdg,one with intermittent duty and the other one with continuous duty3) Using shaded poles
What are the application of core type transformer?
The main application for a core type transformer is to increase voltage from a standard 240v supply up to 415v instead of using a 3 phase supply.
What is the main advantages of potential transformer?
'Potential transformers' (US terminology) or 'voltage transformers' (UK terminology) are, together with 'current transformers', collectively called 'instrument transformers', and are used to safely measure/monitor voltages and currents in high-voltage systems.Potential transformers are used to reduce the voltage-level of a high-voltage circuit to a lower voltage which can then be read using an ordinary voltmeter; at the same time, it electrically-isolates the high-voltage system for the purpose of safety. Potential transformers, together with current transformers, can also be used to operate wattmeters, or to supply protective relays.

Can 3 single phase transformers can replace 1 three phase transformer?
Yes, you can use three single phase transformers on three phase applications and interconnect them to serve as a single transformer or you could use one single phase transformer fed from two of the three lines in a step down application.
What is the difference between an open delta and an open wye connection?
An open delta connection is a delta connection with one phase removed, but still supplied with three line conductors. An open wye is a wye connection with one phase removed, supplying a three line conductors and a neutral conductor. An open-delta/open-wye is a method of providing a reduced-load three-phase supply using just two single-phase transformers, rather than the preferred method of using three single-phase transformers.
How do you get an equivalent three phases power from a single phase?
You cannot obtain a three-phase supply from a single-phase system without using some sort of rotary converter.
Can 3phase source supplies single phase load?
For a three-phase, four-wire, system, single-phase loads can be connected between any pair of line conductors. For a three-phase, four-wire, system, single-phase loads can be connected between any pair of line conductors, or between any line conductor and the neutral conductor. The choice depends on the voltage requirements of the load.
Why floating neutral in a three phase supply is undesirable?
Floating neutral in 3 phase supply is undesirable as if the same thing occurs then there will be bad effect for all single phase equipment which we are using as phase to neutral voltage will exceed from its normal value and it will harm the equipments.
Will a diesel generator producing single phase work on three phase electricity supply?
No, you can not get three phase power from a single phase generator no matter what internal connections you use. On the other hand you can obtain a single phase supply from a three phase generator by using any two phase legs as a source. <<>> I single phase generator can produce three phase by using a converter but its not efficient and does not work very well. <<>> Well there is an another way too. but one has to be precautious in that...simply short the three phases of the electricity supply n feed them with a single phase of the generator...now when the mains is bak make sure the short phases are separated again and then powered up otherwise you will be hearin blasts here n there...use ATS for automatic switching that gives you automatic transfer and can be programmed when to short and when not to..

Can i run single phase dc motor from 3phase bldc controller. i m using single phase motor in motorcycle and controller from other electric vehicle. if yes please tell me how to connect it?
It is possible to run a DC motor on a 3-phase supply using a full-wave rectifier if the voltage is right.
How do you change 3 1phase transformer in to 3 phase?
Three-phase transformation can be obtained using two Transformers, by connecting them in what is known as an 'open delta' connection.
How would DC be obtained from a three phase supply?
By using a three-phase rectifier.
