Hello everyone,
I have a transformer that I want to find it's winding's reactance, how could I do so? The reason that I want to find the reactance is that I want to calculate the current in the primary winding of the transformer. I will use the following eqn. :
I(phasor) = V(phasor) / [ R(winding) + j w L(winding) ]
V(phasor) is 110 Vac (from mains) (considered to have zero phase angle, right?)
R(winding) could be measured using an Ohm-meter, right?
w = 2 * pi * (60Hz)
Now, for the L(winding) .. how could I find it ? Or am I doing the whole current calculation thing in a wrong way??
Thank you all in advance,
