What are losses in the transformer
Losses in transformer An ideal transformer has no energy losses i.e zero losses and 100% efficient. but in real (In practical) transformers, energy is dissipated in the windings, core, and surrounding structures. Larger transformers are generally more
What is dry type transformer
Dry type transformer as its name dry type means it does not require oil or any other liquid to cool the electrical core and coils. The purpose is served by normal air ventilation. In India, dry type
Amorphous transformers
The amorphous transformer is conventional transformer use the core of silicon steel laminations with an almost uniform crystalline structure i.e. CRGO. Amorphous transformers employ the core of amorphous steel which has lower hysteresis losses. Amorphous alloy: Metal
Advantages and disadvantages of an amorphous metal transformer
Advantages of amorphous metal in the transformer Less no-load losses: No load losses are 20 to 30% less as compared to a conventional silicon steel sheet transformer which keeps occurring for the lifetime despite transformer load. Easy
What are energy efficient motors
Energy efficient motors Energy efficient motors are motors in which improvements in the design are assimilated so as to increase the efficiency more than the standard motor. Design improvements in energy efficient motors mainly target reduction in
Electronic regulators
Energy conservation techniques in a fan, electronic regulators : Conventional fan regulators incorporated resistors in it for the speed control. Lesser amounts of current flows lesser amounts of current flow through fan and remaining passes through the
Classification of energy sources
Classification of energy sources can be as given below : Types of energy source Description Example Primary energy sources These are the sources which can be directly founds in nature or stored in nature and can be
Compact fluorescent lamp (CFL)
Low energy efficiency of incandescent lamps has made them to be replaced with some others energy efficient alternative. Compact fluorescent lamp is one such alternative which can replace almost any incandescent lamp. CFL consist of two parts:
Energy conservation in electrical motors
Energy costs continues to increase due to ever increasing global demand for energy. Industrial sector is awakening in order to reduce cost of production after the markets has the been opened up in early nineties. Decreased production
What is energy conservation
Energy conservation simply means to reduce the growth of energy consumption by avoiding unnecessary usage of energy. Conserving energy helps the planet and saves money—so why don’t more people make the effort to do it? Maybe they
