I will go read up on those books sir, gaining as much knowledge as possible on as many topics and subjects as possible is what makes me grow as a junior technician.
I would have loved to have done calculations before building sir, but i was in the same boat then as i am now - lack of theory, knowledge and experience to calculate anything substantial.
So what I did was:
1. Asses my transformer capacity - 50kVA @ 5773.5A & 5V
2. Evaluate similar transformers...
I had that feeling sir, was just quietly hoping that i was young, inexperienced and a bit thick and somewhere in all these parameters there must be a reasonably-simplified empirical equation to obtain a ball-park "gut-feel" figure you know ?
Hey guys
I'm BRAND SPANKING new to posting anything an any forum ever...this is a last resort at the end of much research, brainstorming and desperate googling...
My problem:
We've built a transformer tank to house the core and this will be filled with oil, a radiator was built as well...
