why is it we cant use DC transformers?
i know we need a change in magnetic flux to create a current but when i say DC i mean a DC offset sinewave so the voltages ranging from 0-10v say but it is always changing,
Would this create a magnetic flux which we could in turn use in a transformer and lower the voltage for the output?
in my understanding this is possible but it isnt in use as we dont have a need for it, imlooking at reasons we use AC in the uk over dc for the power grid,
would saying we can easily use transformers with ac and not dc be wrong? again i understand with DC (---------------) this wouldnt work but dc /\/\/\/\?
thanks guys
