Electrical and Electronic Engineering (EEE) : Transformers - Quiz(MCQ)
The direction of magnetic flux in a transformer must have
A)
no reluctance
B)
Low reluctance
C)
Low resistance
D)
High Impedance

Correct Answer : Option (B) :   Low reluctance


Explanation : Reluctance refers to analogous resistance. As we know, resistance opposes the flow of electric current in an electric circuit that same work does by a reluctance in a magnetic circuit.

Reluctance opposes the flow of magnetic flux in the magnetic circuit. It stores magnetic energy in the magnetic circuit. If the reluctance is low, less the opposite of the magnetic flux in the circuit; therefore, more flux can flow through the transformer core.
