Q. Transformer utilization factor of a centre tapped full wave rectifier is_

A
0.623
B
0.678
C
0.693
D
0.625
Solution:
  • Transformer utilization factor (TUF) is defined as the ratio of DC power output to the AC rating of the transformer. It is an important parameter for evaluating the performance of a rectifier circuit.
  • Transformer utilisation factor is the ratio of AC power delivered to load to the DC power rating.
  • This factor indicates effectiveness of transformer usage by rectifier. For a half wave rectifier, it? low and equal to 0.693.
