Transformers, power converters having tranformers, and methods of converting electrical power
A transformer includes a core with a surface, a primary winding with two or more primary winding turns wrapped about the core, and a secondary winding with one and only one secondary winding turn extending about the core. The one and only one secondary winding turn is interleaved among the two or more primary winding turns on the surface of the core to limit magnetic flux leakage along the primary winding and the secondary winding. Power converters and power conversion methods are also described.
ELECTRIC TRANSFORMER WITH AN INCREASED TOTAL LEAKAGE IMPEDANCE
An electric transformer comprising a first magnetic circuit coupling a primary coil and a secondary coil, the first magnetic circuit comprising a first limb extending along a vertical axis, the primary coil comprising inner and outer primary coils connected in series, the inner primary coil, the secondary coil, and the outer primary coil being cylindrical and arranged concentrically around the first limb, wherein the inner primary coil, the secondary coil and the outer primary coil are mounted in a manner to maintain a predefined inner gap between the inner primary coil and the secondary coil and a predefined outer gap between the secondary coil and the outer primary coil, the inner and outer gaps being evaluated along a radial direction relative to the vertical axis, the inner and outer gaps increasing a leakage of a magnetic flux between the first coil and the secondary coil.
