• Aim:
Write a program to find out the net iron area & window area of the
transformer.

• Objective:
To understand the how to find the net iron area & window area of
the transformer.

• Theory:

Calculation of core area,

Et = emf per turn, V
δ = current density A/m2
Ai = net core area, m2
Agi = gross core area, m2
Aw = window area, m2
Фm = main flux, Wb
Bm = Maximum flux density, wb/m2
The voltage per turn is calculated from eqn.
Et = K√Q
Where, K = √(4.44*f* Фm/AT*103)
Now, flux Фm = Et/(4.44*f)
Therefore, the value of flux in the core can be calculated. The area
of the core is found out by assuming a suitable value of maximum flux
density Bm.
 Net core area required Ai = Фm/Bm
& Gross core area Agi = Ai/SF
Aw = Q/(2.22*f*Bm*Kw* δ*Ai*10-3)

• Procedure:
1) Start the MATLAB

2) Create a new file

3) By using a given data find the value of K, Et, Фm, Ai & Aw.

4) Write a program to find out the net iron area & window area of the
transformer.

5) Save the program.

• Problem:
The ratio of flux to full load mmf in a 400kVA, 50Hz, single
phase core type power transformer is 2.4*10-6 & calculate the net
iron area & the window area of the transformer. Maximum flux
density in core is 1.3 wb/m2, current density is 2.7 A/mm2 & window
space factor 0.26.

• Program:
%% Calculation for Ai & Aw
f = 50
R = 2.4*10^-6
Q = 400
Bm = 1.3
del = 2.7*10^6
Kw = 0.26
K = (4.44*50*2.4*10^-6*10^3)^0.5
Et = K*(Q)^0.5
Phym = (Et)/(4.44*f)
 Ai = (Phym)/(Bm) % Net iron area in m^2
Aw = (Q)/(2.22*f*Bm*Kw*Ai*del*10^-3) % Window Area
in m^2

• Output
K = 0.7299
Et = 14.5986
Phym = 0.0658
Ai = 0.0506
Aw = 0.0781

• Result:
Terms Theoretical Practical
Ai 0.0506 0.0506
Aw 0.0781 0.0781

• Conclusion:
In this way we have find the net iron area & window area of the
transformer by using a MATLAB.
