What happens when a DC supply is given to a transfomer?

Answer 1

Depending on the DC source, you might get a giant electromagnet.

Answer 2

You get a current determined by V/R, where V is the supply voltage, and R is the DC resistance of the transformer. It is possible to burn out the transformer or the supply if the voltage is too high and you don't have some other form of current limiting.

edit:
Without oscillators in the circuit is not possible to transform DC into AC.

Answer 3

1)It would not work as a transformer because there are No magnetic flux variations.
2) The current is only limited by the resistance of the winding which is normally very small as it is designed for minimum Joule losses and to avoid pelicular effect
3) Probably it would burn out the winding
if your DC powersource is strong enough

Answer 4

Transformers do not work on a DC circuit. Transformers are only good for AC voltages.

They just don't work for DC. Its all about physics, and that is above this platform.

Answer 5

1)AC transformer never works on DC supply as it can't produce mutual induction

2)If the DC power is applied to the DC transformer(Dimmerstat), we can step up or down the DC voltage.

Answer 6

is it a DC to AC transformer? I need more characteristic about the transformer

Answer 7

nothing. This is Faraday's famous experiment. You get nothing at the other end because there is no changing magnetic flux.
