Description : Explain the effect of Harmonics on the Transformer.
Answer :
Effect of Harmonics on the Transformer: 1. Core loss: Harmonic voltage increases the hysteresis and eddy current losses in the lamination. The amount of the core loss depends on ... small core vibrations. 5. Saturation problem: Sometimes additional harmonic voltage causes core saturation.
