Answer / ajay k mathew
core type transformer has greater core while shell type has greater windings.shell type construction is more cost effective in case of transformers above 50kva.

Answer / gaurika
in a core type transformer,the core is surrounded by the
windings. in shell type, the winding is surrounded by core.

Answer / balu balaji
In core type transformers Each and every limb is ocupied with the both primary and secondary winding aree placed succesively arround each limb
In shell type ransformers is consturcted with the three limbs.
both primary ad secondary winding are wound around the central lmb..........

Answer / raju dutta
core type transformer has single magnetic circuit but shall
type transformer has double magnetic circuit.
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 20 Yes | 4 No |
Answer / sagar
In shell type transfomer flux is divided into two different path so core loss or iron loss is less in shell type transformer than core type transformer
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 22 Yes | 7 No |
Answer / santhosh
Core type is winding surrounding by the core so winding is increased but shell type is core surrounding by winding less winding is used so copper loss decrease compared to core
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 5 Yes | 4 No |
Answer / shripad
Core type transformer has single magnetic circuit but in shell type double magnetic circuit is used.
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 0 Yes | 0 No |
Answer / sandeep mukherjee
In core type xmer are basically used for high-voltage while shell type is used for low-voltage
And in core type the winding are done in both the limb
But in shell type winding is done in a comman limb which is in the middle of both the limb
In other word we can say that core tpye xmer are surrounded by winding while in shell tpye are surrounded by the core

Answer / karthik raman.b
for smaller machine shell type construction is best for larger machine we need core type
