Estimating Temperature Rise of Transformers

Focus:

Temperature rise of transformer may be predicted by calculating core and winding losses

What you’ll learn:

• How to calculate transformer temperature rise
• How to minimize core losses at expected operating temperature
• How to simplify core selection by selecting new ferrite materials with consistent core loss over wide temperature range
