It is important for machine design engineers to understand how transformers work so they can design machinery that operates optimally within the proper voltage ranges, as well as select the right ...

You've seen it pretty much every day now for decades, and you've interacted with it just as many times, but have you ever wondered why the power symbol looks the way that it does? There's a joke that ...

Power transformers are often the main source of common-mode noise in isolated switching power converters. Why? Because inside the transformer, the windings on the primary and secondary sides of the ...

Facing unprecedented lead times and skyrocketing costs, the transformer supply chain crisis threatens the backbone of the electric power industry, driving urgent calls for increased manufacturing ...

Like many North Carolinians, you may have never considered electric substations before last week’s attack in Moore County. Their thickets of metal coils, bars and boxy transformers blend into ...

In power distribution systems, three-phase transformer configuration directly impacts system reliability and load management. Understanding the trade-offs between Delta and Wye connections enables ...

The demand for higher efficiency and smaller packages has been the driving force behind advances in switch-mode power-conversion topologies including buck, boost, flyback, forward converters, and ...
