Due to non-linearity of magnetic core of large transformer, Which is excited by pure sinusoidal voltage source, the exciting current isn't perfectly sinusoidal. It can be thought to be composed of pure sinusoidal plus mainly 3rd harmonic component.
But does this current flows in the primary side alone or both side ? If both side, what is its distribution (i.e. Primary / Secondary)
Also, when the transformer primary is driven by pure sinusoidal current source, The core flux don't be pure sinusoidal but will have major 3rd harmonics.
So, this will create non sinusoidal Voltage with major 3rd harmonics, both in the primary and secondary in this case. Isn't it?
