And Asp we might add, the application of DC to the primary will cause a single pulse out of the secondary
Quote:Wrong, there is DC half-wave and DC full-wave which would allow ongoing mutual induction,
Thank you Chum but I'm not sure what you mean by "DC half-wave and DC full-wave"
Quote:in fact as long as the DC is changing in magnitude, there would be continuous mutual induction and thus a continuous induced voltage in the secondary.
That's true, and I apologize if I was misunderstood. Of course if, eg, the source DC V were to increase in amplitude then yes one single continuous sec DC V would result but eventually wouldn't the increasing pri I burn it out
Quote: Also your claim of a " single pulse out of the secondary" even under steady state DC is incomplete as there would be an equal induced voltage upon de-energization,
Yes of course. Simply didn't think it important to the discussion
Quote:...and not only that, but due to Lenz's Law there would be a counter-EMF induced in the primary which will oppose the source voltage
Yes Chum, again, of course there would, but still I don't see how this fact negates my assertion, eg, the immediate effect in practical case of connecting a battery across the primary
Forgive if I wasn't clear. I'm continually amazed by what the contributor considers a simple, obvious statement of fact gets misinterpreted
All bets would be off Chum but it might be interesting to speculate upon the results if the batt internal R and the xfmr sec pri were both to be of zero R
