What are core lamination
- Laminations mitigate the eddy currents.
- The iron core is formed by laminations dipped in insulating varnish.
- Sliced core offers very less width to circulated eddy currents.
- Silicon steel sheets to replace with solid core break up the eddy current path without incrementing reluctance of magnetic path.
- In additions to increased efficiency, above approaches benefits in,
- Minimized unit dimensions.
- Minimized transformer heating which reduces the need for extra cooling and insulation.
- Minimized noise.
- Increased insulation life.
- Withstand harmonic loads.
