Design magnetic frame and winding for a 50 KVA, 11000/400 V, 50Hz, three phase delta/star
core type distribution transformer. Assume flux density 1.2 T, current density (aluminum
conductor) 1.5 A/mm2, window space factor=0.2, having window area 10 times net iron area.
Use three stepped cores.
Given Data : kVA=50, f = 50 Hz, Bm=1.2 T d=1.5 A/mm2
VHV=11000 V delta VLV=400 V star Kw=0.2 Aw/Ai =10
Output equation of transformer is given as

So
Check figure in current density value

Hence emf per turn

With such medium size 50KVA transformers three stepped or more stepped cores are
used. When we use higher number of steps in core, we utilize the iron space better. By
increasing the number of steps, the area of circumscribing circle is more effectively
utilized for iron part. The relation between circumscribe circle diameter “d” and core
Core type Square Cruciform 3 stepped 4 stepped 5 stepped 6 stepped
cross section “Ai” can be expressed as follows
Constant k 0.45 0.56 0.6 0.62 0.64 0.65
The value of constant k depends upon the number of steps of core of the transformer,
given as
Window area is determined as product of width and height of the window. The
height of the window, is usually taken 2 to 4 times of width of window.
When height of window is taken high the mean turn length will decrease but
leakage flux will increase. Similarly, less height and more width of window
will increase the mean turn length but decrease leakage flux by some amount.
Let us take height of window 2.5 times of width of window.

Design magnetic frame and winding for a 10 KVA 11000/230 V, 50Hz, single phase core type
transformer. Assume flux density 1.1 T, current density 2.2 A/mm2, window space factor=0.25,
constant K=0.8 for single phase core type transformer. Use cruciform two stepped core.
Given Data : kVA=10, f = 50 Hz, Bm=1.1 T d=2.2 A/mm2

Similarly, less height and more width of window will increase the mean turn length but decrease
leakage flux by some amount. Let us take height of window 2.5 times of width of window.
Thus, from the above equations, the height of the window & the width of the window can be calculated.
