The transformer ratio is directly related to the turns ratio of a transformer. The turns ratio is defined as the ratio of the number of turns in the primary winding (N1) to the number of turns in the secondary winding (N2). Mathematically, it can be expressed as:
Turns Ratio (TR) = N1 / N2
On the other hand, the transformer ratio, also known as the voltage ratio or voltage transformation ratio, is the ratio of the output voltage (V2) to the input voltage (V1) of the transformer. Mathematically, it can be expressed as:
Transformer Ratio (TR) = V2 / V1
The relationship between the turns ratio and the transformer ratio is given by:
TR = V2 / V1 = (N2 / N1)
So, the transformer ratio is equal to the turns ratio. This means that if you know the turns ratio of a transformer, you can directly calculate the transformer ratio, which determines how the voltage is stepped up or stepped down in the transformer.
