Transformer total loss P(loss) in watts is equal to the sum of copper loss Pc in Watts, eddy current loss Pe in watts and hysteresis loss Ph in watts.

P(loss) = Pc + Pe + Ph

Transformer Loss Calculation Formula:

An AC electric machine always has two losses one is variable loss and another one is a constant loss. Therefore, transformer total losses are equal to the sum of the variable loss and constant loss. variable loss is nothing but a copper loss and constant loss is nothing but eddy current loss and hysteresis loss.

Total transformer loss for single-phase transformer formula can be written as

= (I(P-A)2 *R1(Ω))+(I(S-A)2*R2(Ω))+(Ke*Bm2 *F(hz)2*t2*V)+(Kh*Bmax1.6 *f*V)

For three-phase transformer, the copper loss is the three times of the single-phase copper loss hence,

Total transformer loss three phase transformer formula,

= (3*I(P-A)2 *R1(Ω))+(3*I(S-A)2*R2(Ω))+(Ke*Bm2 *F(hz)2*t2*V)+(Kh*Bmax1.6 *f*V)

Here,

I(P-A) = Primary Current in Amps.

I(S-A) = Secondary Current in Amps.

R1(Ω) = Primary Resistance in ohms.

R2(Ω) = Secondary resistance in ohms.

Ke = Eddy current Constant in Numbers

Bm = Maximum Flux Density in Weber per meter2

F(Hz) = Frequency in Hz

t = thickness of the sheet in meter

V = Volume of the magnetic material in m3

Kh = Hysteresis Constant
