Decrease the reluctance of the magnetic path.
Why iron core of transformer laminated.
The eddy currents cause energy to be lost from the transformer as they heat up the core meaning that electrical energy is being wasted as unwanted heat energy.
Reduce eddy current losses.
Transformers are basically two coils of wire wrapped around a core of iron.
Does it depend core size and material.
Does it also depends on the size of core.
The reason we laminate the iron cores in transformers is because we want to limit what are called eddy currents.
Why a transformer core is laminated.
Eddy current is induced in core and circulates normal to the width of the core causing heat.
Why is the core of a transformer is laminated.
Why iron core is thin laminated in transformer.

To control it s weight regulate the energy loss due to eddy currents increase the formation secondary voltage.
Hello this question is related to my school project assignment i would like what happens when a core of transformer is laminated.
The core of any transformer is laminated for the following reasons.
I would like to know why core of transformer is laminated.
Help community events resources site.
This is equivalent to a microscopic laminated magnetic circuit see silicon steel above hence reducing the eddy currents particularly at very high frequencies.
The iron core transformer has higher permeability thus it is applied in transformer in place of air core in modern transformer.
The purpose of providing an iron core in a transformer is to.
Hello this question is regarding one of my school projects assignments.
The core is laminated to reduce these to a minimum as they interfere with the efficient transfer of energy from the primary coil to the secondary one.
