Calculadora de Transformador Eléctrico
Calcula la relación de vueltas, voltaje y corriente de un transformador. Ingresa los datos del primario para obtener los del secundario.
Voltaje Secundario
12.00 V
Secondary Voltage vs Primary Voltage
Fórmula
Transformer
A transformer transfers electrical energy between circuits via magnetic coupling, changing voltage and current levels.
Formulas
V2 / V1 = N2 / N1 (voltage ratio equals turns ratio)
I2 / I1 = N1 / N2 (current ratio is inverse of turns ratio)
Power is conserved in an ideal transformer: P1 = P2.
Ejemplo Resuelto
A step-down transformer: 120 V input, 500 primary turns, 50 secondary turns, 1 A primary current.
- 01Turns ratio = N2/N1 = 50/500 = 0.1
- 02V2 = V1 * N2/N1 = 120 * 0.1 = 12 V
- 03I2 = I1 * N1/N2 = 1 * 500/50 = 10 A
- 04Power check: 120*1 = 12*10 = 120 W
Preguntas Frecuentes
Can a transformer work with DC?
No. Transformers require a changing magnetic field to operate, which means they only work with AC (alternating current).
What is a step-down transformer?
A transformer with fewer secondary turns than primary, producing a lower output voltage. A step-up transformer does the opposite.
Why are transformers not 100% efficient?
Real transformers have losses from wire resistance (copper losses), magnetic hysteresis, and eddy currents in the core (iron losses).
