• analyse quantitatively the operation of ideal transformers through the application of: (ACSPH110)
– 𝑉_p/𝑉_s =𝑁_p/𝑁_s
– 𝑉_p 𝐼_p=𝑉_s 𝐼_s

• evaluate qualitatively the limitations of the ideal transformer model and the strategies used to improve transformer efficiency, including but not limited to:
– incomplete flux linkage
– resistive heat production and eddy currents

• analyse applications of step-up and step-down transformers, including but not limited to:
– the distribution of energy using high-voltage transmission lines

How does a transformer work? What is flux linkage? What is the role of the iron core in transformers? Primary and secondary coils in transformers.
