Consider a simple, transformer with two windings. Find the current provided by the voltage source.

  • Winding 1 has a sinusoidal voltage of 12020° applied to it at a frequency of 60Hz.
  • N1N2=3
  • The combined load on winding 2 is ZL=(5+j3)Ω

Solution

Given: e1(t)=V1cos(ωt) and ω=2πf

Substituting f=60Hz, ω=120π

Therefore, e1(t)=1202cos(120πt)V

Now the Thevenin equivalent impedance, Zth, is found through the following steps:

Zth=e1i1

Since this is an ideal transformer e1=N1N2e2 and i1=N2N1i2

So we can substitute, Zth=N1N2e2N2N1i2

=(N1N2)2ZL

Now, plugging in the given values:

Zth=32(5+j3)

=(45+j27)Ω

Since this is an ideal transformer, it can be modeled by this simple circuit:

Therefore, i1=e1Zth,

i1=120245+j27A
