  2. Linear variable differential transformer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_variable...

    Cutaway view of an LVDT. Current is driven through the primary coil at A, causing an induction current to be generated through the secondary coils at B.. The linear variable differential transformer (LVDT) – also called linear variable displacement transformer, [1] linear variable displacement transducer, [2] or simply differential transformer [3] – is a type of electrical transformer [4 ...

  3. Vector group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vector_group

    Transformers built to ANSI standards usually do not have the vector group shown on their nameplate and instead a vector diagram is given to show the relationship between the primary and other windings. Removing harmonics: Dy connection – D winding nullifies 3rd harmonics, preventing it to be reflected on Wye side.

  4. Transducer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transducer

    A transducer is a device that converts energy from one form to another. Usually a transducer converts a signal in one form of energy to a signal in another. [1] Transducers are often employed at the boundaries of automation, measurement, and control systems, where electrical signals are converted to and from other physical quantities (energy, force, torque, light, motion, position, etc.).

  5. Rotary variable differential transformer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotary_variable...

    The transformer has a rotor which can be turned by an external force. The transformer acts as an electromechanical transducer that outputs an alternating current (AC) voltage proportional to the angular displacement of its rotor shaft. In operation, an alternating current (AC) voltage is applied to the transformer primary to energize the RVDT.

  6. Transformer types - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transformer_types

    A leakage transformer, also called a stray-field transformer, has a significantly higher leakage inductance than other transformers, sometimes increased by a magnetic bypass or shunt in its core between primary and secondary, which is sometimes adjustable with a set screw. This provides a transformer with an inherent current limitation due to ...

  7. Resolver (electrical) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resolver_(electrical)

    On the inside, the configuration of the wire windings makes it different. The stator portion of the resolver houses three windings: an exciter winding and two two-phase windings (usually labeled "x" and "y") (case of a brushless resolver). The exciter winding is located on the top; it is a coil of a turning (rotary) transformer.

  8. Rotating magnetic field - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotating_magnetic_field

    The rotating magnetic field is the key principle in the operation of induction machines.The induction motor consists of a stator and rotor.In the stator a group of fixed windings are so arranged that a two phase current, for example, produces a magnetic field which rotates at an angular velocity determined by the frequency of the alternating current.

  9. Single-line diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-line_diagram

    A typical one-line diagram with annotated power flows. Red boxes represent circuit breakers, grey lines represent three-phase bus and interconnecting conductors, the orange circle represents an electric generator, the green spiral is an inductor, and the three overlapping blue circles represent a double-wound transformer with a tertiary winding.
