Can anyone give formula derivation for showing turns ratio in terms of resistance?

Surinder Rajput said:   8 years ago
Here is the little formula for impedance VS turns.
a= Turns Ratio, (Np/Ns)=Square Root of (Zp/Zs),
Square root of (380/20)=4/1,
Square root of (4/1)=2,
So 2.

The National Instructional Media Institute (NIMI) for Industrial Traning book.

Np/Ns=Zp/Zs.
Where,
Np=No of turns in the primary.
Ns=No of turns in the secondary.
Zp=primary impedance or (source).
Zs=secondary impedance or (load).
Sol; Source Z=80 ohm.
Load Z =320ohm.
Zp/Zs=80/320.
Turns Ratio =1:2 answer= 2.
1:2 Turns ratio match the 80 ohm source impedance to a 320 ohm load.

If primary Resistance transfer to the secondary winding. Then,
R2=K^2 R1.
320=K^2 80,
K^2=320/80 = 4.
K= √4 = 2.

Transformation ratio k = n2/n1.
Here the given value is in ohms i.e resistive.
That will be more in the winding.
i.e 320/8 = 4.

It will be more in winding.
n2/n1 = k,
320/80 = k,
= 4.

Hello, @Yash.

It should require to measure current and voltage of transformer from the secondary side. Then you will able to know KVA rating of the transformer!

Yash said:   9 years ago
Is any technique to know the KVA rating of the transformer without nameplate?

Nidu said:   9 years ago
Sqr(Np/Ns) = Zp/Zs,

Because turns ratio is Np/Ns not Ns/Np.

Can anybody solve this problem in a simple way?
