Primary and secondary windings are fundamental components of a transformer, with the primary winding connected to the input voltage source and the secondary winding delivering the transformed voltage to the load. They function through electromagnetic induction, allowing energy to be efficiently transferred between circuits without direct electrical connection.

Electrical Connection

Electromagnetic induction is the process by which a changing magnetic field within a closed loop induces an electric current in a conductor. This fundamental principle underlies the operation of transformers, electric generators, and many other electrical devices, enabling the conversion of mechanical energy into electrical energy and vice versa.

Energy transfer between circuits

Transformers are a type of deep learning model architecture that utilize self-attention mechanisms to process input data, allowing for efficient handling of sequential data like text. They have become foundational in natural language processing tasks due to their ability to capture long-range dependencies and parallelize training processes.

Transformer

A voltage source is a fundamental component in electrical circuits, providing a constant potential difference across its terminals. This potential difference drives the current through the circuit, enabling the operation of various electronic devices and systems.

Voltage Source

In physics and engineering, 'load' refers to the external forces or other actions that cause stress, deformation, or displacement in a structural element or system. Understanding load is crucial for designing structures that can withstand various forces without failure, ensuring safety and functionality.
