Since its invention in 1885 by Otto Bláthy, Miksa Déri and KárolyZipernowsky, transformers have become an important cornerstone of theelectrical infrastructure we have today. They are found mostprominently in any machinery or device that requires a differentlevel of voltage or current than a general grid can supply, such ascomputers, motors or even cars. In the case of this project, thetransformer was originally intended to be connected to a resonatingH-bridge which supplies the primary coil with high frequency voltagepulses to be converted into a higher voltage transferred to arectifier unit. Because of the level of frequency supplied, thetransformer was required to be constructed with a different type ofcore and cable for the winding. When it became clear that the cablecouldn't be supplied in time, the focus shifted towards constructinga prototype instead. The prototype was designed to generate a certainamount of leakage inductance while subjected to a short circuit test.After a couple of attempts, the group managed to construct atransformer whose leakage inductance was well within range of thespecifications. The finished transformer prototype was delivered andthe group had thus successfully constructed what is to be used as atemplate for further transformers of the same type.A special thanks to ScandiNova Systems AB for initiating this projectand giving us the opportunity to participate, and to Per Nilsson, PerBenkowski and Klas Elmqvist for mentoring us along the way.
