What exactly carries energy in a transformer from primary to secondary? [duplicate]
Suppose we have applied a voltage to a transformer with an open secondary, we will get a certain flux in the core and a certain voltage at the secondary depending upon the turns ratio.
Now, suppose we ...

Why is the magnitude of mutual flux in a transformer independent of the current in primary?
Consider a transformer with no load,
Given \$\phi= \phi_m \sin (\omega t)\$
\$e_1 = N_1 \dfrac{d \phi}{dt} = N_1\omega \phi_m \cos (\omega t)\$
\$E_1 = e_{1rms} = N_1\omega \phi_m \ \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}...

Is the field distortion due to armature reaction constant in a series motor?
In a series motor the current in the field and armature windings are always equal.
I'd expect that to mean that their respective fluxes always keep the same proportion.
So, if this is true, does the ...
