What type of winding is used in a transformer?
In core type, we wrap the primary, and secondary windings on the outside limbs, and in shell type, we place the primary and secondary windings on the inner limbs. We use concentric type windings in core type transformer. We place a low voltage winding near the core. However, to reduce leakage reactance, windings can be interlaced.
How to Calculate Primary Leakage Reactance?
Primary Leakage Reactance calculator uses Primary Leakage Reactance = Reactance of Primary in Secondary/(Transformation Ratio^2) to calculate the Primary Leakage Reactance, The Primary Leakage Reactance formula is defined as the reactance that is in the primary winding of the transformer. its SI unit is ohms. Primary Leakage Reactance is denoted by XL1 symbol.
How to calculate Primary Leakage Reactance using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Primary Leakage Reactance, enter Reactance of Primary in Secondary (X'1) & Transformation Ratio (K) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Primary Leakage Reactance calculation can be explained with given input values -> 0.888889 = 1.28/(1.2^2).
