Question: How to properly simulate load on transformer secondaries without affecting voltage calculations?
I have a transformer simulation where:
-
Primary is voltage-excited and working correctly
-
Secondaries show proper induced voltages under no-load conditions
-
Now I need to simulate load conditions on the secondaries
The Problem:
When I try to use current excitation on the secondaries to simulate load, it interferes with the natural voltage induction calculations.
Seeking Solution:
What’s the correct approach to model load on transformer secondaries while maintaining accurate voltage calculations? Should I calculate equivalent secondary currents based on load requirements and transformer parameters, or is there a better method?
Current Setup:
-
3-phase transformer simulation
-
Primary windings: voltage excitation
-
Secondary windings: need proper load modeling
Any guidance on the best practice for transformer load simulation would be appreciated.
