How can we find Vout?

Solution

This image represents a transformer circuit with two inductors, where:

  • The left side shows the primary winding with a current source labeled 200A20\angle 0^\circ \, A.
  • The right side shows the secondary winding with an output voltage labeled VoutV_{\text{out}}.

To find VoutV_{\text{out}}, we typically use the transformer voltage-current relationship. Assuming it’s an ideal transformer, the primary and secondary sides are related by the turns ratio N1:N2N_1 : N_2.

If we denote:

  • N1N_1 as the number of turns on the primary coil,
  • N2N_2 as the number of turns on the secondary coil,

Then, the output voltage VoutV_{\text{out}} is related to the primary current I1I_1 by:

Vout=jωMI1V_{\text{out}} = j \omega M I_1

where:

  • jj represents the phase shift of 90 degrees due to the mutual inductance.
  • ω\omega is the angular frequency of the current.
  • MM is the mutual inductance given by M=kL1L2M = k \sqrt{L_1 L_2}, where kk is the coupling coefficient (close to 1 for an ideal transformer).

If we don’t have details on N1N_1 and N2N_2, or ω\omega and MM, we’d need them to complete this calculation. Could you provide these values if available?

Let me know if you’d like a detailed solution based on assumptions, or feel free to ask any questions. Here are five related questions:

  1. What is the role of turns ratio in transformer voltage calculations?
  2. How does mutual inductance affect VoutV_{\text{out}}?
  3. What are typical values of coupling coefficient kk in transformers?
  4. How does the frequency of I1I_1 impact the transformer output voltage?
  5. How can we calculate MM if kk, L1L_1, and L2L_2 are known?

Tip: Ideal transformers preserve power between the primary and secondary sides, meaning Pprimary=PsecondaryP_{\text{primary}} = P_{\text{secondary}}.
