    The magnetizing current in a transformer is the current that flows in the primary winding when a primary voltage is applied with the secondary unloaded. It is the current needed to satisfy the excitation condition determined by the fundamental transformer equation. This current is related to the equivalent primary inductance of the transformer and establishes the magnetic flux in the core. The magnetizing current flows in the primary regardless of the transformer's load condition and adds to the primary load current component.

    What is magnetizing current in a transformer?

    What is the magnetizing current of a transformer which its effect is considered as an inductor in the equivalent circuit of a transformer? Hysteresis loss is the energy that is consumed to change the orientation of magnetics domains. When magnetic orientation changes, the core is magnetised and we have a total flux named m inside the core.( m is the total flux resulted from i1 and i2, the currents of rimary and secondary windings!. "o why the core still needs an extra current named im (magnetisation current! to #e magnetised? $t%s not good ractice to ost the same question concurrently on different forums. $t leads to confusion and often frustration for #oth you and those who try to offer advice. &ou%ll ro#a#ly find your osts will #e consolidated #y one of the forum moderators. 'he magnetising current is that current which flows in the rimary winding when the rimary voltage is a lied with the secondary unloaded. $t%s the necessary current that satisfies the excitation condition as determined #y the fundamental transformer equation ( as $ stated in res onse to your other ost.
