Construction of Auto-transformer
There are two types of auto transformer based on the construction. In one type
of transformer, there is continuous winding with the taps brought out at convenient
points determined by the desired secondary voltage. However, in another type of auto
transformer, there are two or more distinct coils which are electrically connected to
form a continuous winding. The construction of Auto transformer is shown in the
figure below.

The primary winding AB (Figure 5) from which a tapping at C is taken, such that CB
acts as a secondary winding. The supply voltage is applied across AB, and the load is
connected across CB. The tapping may be fixed or variable. When an AC voltage
V1 is applied across AB, an alternating flux is set up in the core, as a result, an emf
E1 is induced in the winding AB. A part of this induced emf is taken in the secondary
circuit.
Let:
V1 – primary applied voltage
V2 – secondary voltage across the load

I1 – primary current
I2 – load current
N1 – number of turns between A and
N2 – number of turns between C and B
Neglecting no-load current, leakage reactance and losses
V1 = E1 and V2 = E2
Equation (1) and (2) shows that the ampere-turns due to section BC and AC balance
each other which is characteristic of the transformer action.

The length of the conductor is proportional to the number of turns, and the cross-
section is proportional to the product of current and number of turns.
Now, from the above figure (B) shown of the auto transformer, the weight of copper
required in an auto transformer is
Therefore
If the same duty is performed with an ordinary two winding transformer shown above
in the figure (A), the total weight of the copper required in the ordinary transformer,
Therefore,
Now, the ratio of the weight of the copper in an auto transformer to the weight of
copper in an ordinary transformer is given as
https://circuitglobe.com/what-is-an-auto-transformer.html
Therefore,
Saving of copper = K x weight of copper required for two windings of the transformer

Hence, saving in copper increases as the transformation ratio approaches unity. Hence
the auto transformer is used when the value of K is nearly equal to unity.
https://circuitglobe.com/what-is-an-auto-transformer.html
V2 = V1 x NCB/ NAB
Assuming a unity power factor load, the load current I 2 will be equal V2 divided by
the load resistance RL. If the transformer is 100% efficient, the power input V 1I1 must
equal the power input V2I2.
As shown, I1 flows in the portion of the winding AB, while the current BC is (I 2 – I1).
From the standpoint of transformer action, it is considered that the portion of the
winding AB is the primary and the portion of the winding BC is the secondary. The
ampere-turn NAB I1 in the primary equals the ampere-turn NBC(I1- I2) in the secondary.
From the relationship of the ampere-turns in a transformer;
NBC (I2 – I1) == NAC I2 - NAC (I2 NBC/ NAC) - NAB I2 + NAB I1

Figure 5-3
For a highly resistive winding, the current is almost in phase with the voltage, and for
a highly inductive winding, the current lag behind the voltage by a large angle.
The starting winding is highly resistive so, the current flowing in the starting winding
lags behind the applied voltage by a very small angle and the running winding is
highly inductive in nature so, the current flowing in running winding lags behind
applied voltage by a large angle.
The resultant of these two current is IT—the resultant of these two current produce
rotating magnetic field which rotates in one direction.
In a split-phase induction motor, the starting and main current get split from each
other by some angle, so this motor got its name as a split-phase induction motor.

Figure 5-4
In the case of a split-phase induction motor, we use resistance for creating phase
difference, but here we use a capacitor for this purpose. We are familiar with the fact
that the current flowing through the capacitor leads to the voltage.
So, in capacitor start inductor motor and capacitor start capacitor run induction
motor, we are using two winding, the main winding, and the starting winding.
With starting winding, we connect a capacitor, so the current flowing in the capacitor,
i.e., Ist leads the applied voltage by some angle, φ st. There occur large phase angle
differences between these two currents, which produce a resultant current. This will
produce a rotating magnetic field since the torque produced by these motors depends
upon the phase angle difference, which is almost 90o.
So, these motors produce very high starting torque. In the case of capacitor start
induction motor, the centrifugal switch is provided to disconnect the starting winding
when the motor attains a speed up to 75 to 80% of the synchronous speed but in the

case of capacitor start capacitors run induction motor, There is no centrifugal switch
so, the capacitor remains in the circuit and improves the power factor and the running
conditions of the single-phase induction motor.
Since these motors have high starting torque and They are available up to 6 kW hence
they are used in the following application;
1. Conveyors,
2. Grinders,
3. Air conditioners
4. Compressors, etc.

REGION 2:
When the flux remains almost constant at its maximum value- In this region, the rate
of rising current and hence flux remains almost constant.
Hence there is very little induced emf in the shaded portion. The flux produced by this
induced emf has no effect on the main flux, and hence the distribution of flux remains
uniform, and the magnetic axis lies at the center of the pole.
REGION 3
When the flux decreases from a maximum positive value to zero – In this region, the
rate of decrease in the flux and hence current is very high. According to Faraday’s
law, whenever there is a change in flux emf gets induced.
Since the copper band is a short circuit, the current starts flowing in the copper band
due to this induced emf. This current in the copper band produces its own flux.
According to Lenz’s law, the direction of the current in the copper band is such that it
opposes its own cause, i.e., a decrease in current.
So the shaded ring flux aids the main flux, which leads to the crowding of flux in the
shaded part of the stator, and the flux weakens in the non-shaded part. This non-
uniform distribution of flux causes the magnetic axis to shift in the middle of the
pole’s shaded part.
This shifting of the magnetic axis continues for the negative cycle and leads to the
production of a rotating magnetic field. This field’s direction is from the non-shaded
part of the pole to the shaded part of the pole.
Advantages and Disadvantages of Shaded Pole Motor
The advantages of shaded pole induction motor are
1. Very economical and reliable.
2. Construction is simple and robust because there is no centrifugal switch.
The disadvantages of shaded pole induction motor are
1. Low power factor.
2. The starting torque is very poor.
3. The efficiency is very low as the copper losses are high due to the presence of
the copper band.
4. The speed reversal is also difficult and expensive as it requires another set of
copper rings.
