How do I know if a transformer is saturated?

I am doing the simulation of the saturation of a
transformer, but what parameter tells me when a transformer
is saturated? How do you calculate? is on the plate?, there
is a rule that can help me? How could model? I understand
the saturation occurs when the flow can no longer bind to
the other winding, this is given to certain current, this
current is the same that appears as the highest in the bale
of features?

Thank you for your help

Answer Posted / gunasekaran

if transformer getting saturation we cannot get magnetic
balace and it draw more magnetising current.if u applie 50%
rrated voltage saturation may be released. if u applie dc
current more than 10% of the magnetising current
transformer may be saturated that is y we r appilie less
current at the time of winding resistance. another one
method if u have sfra test kit u can find it out

I am having a 42KW 3 phase electrical heating furnace, heating element is 80/20 nichrome material, my connections is made in such a way that 2 star connection compromising 2 coils per phase so totally 12 coils, shall if i use it unbalanced star condition (instead of 2 group of 3 phase or 1 group of 3 phase, connecting 4 phases of 5 phases) what will be the consequences and is it acceptable?
