This examples shows the operational behavior of transformer with short circuit impedance. The transformer is loaded with constant current magnitude of 250A but variable phase angle. The angle varies from 0 to 360 degrees within one second of simulation time.

Plot the real part of the secondary voltage
idealTransformer.v2.re
on the x axis and
idealTransformer.v2.im
on the y axis. The locus of
this complex voltage v2
is a circle.
The center of the circle is the primary supply voltage divided by
the transformation ratio of n=5
. Since in this
experiment the load current magnitude is constant, the voltage drop
across the short circuit impedance of the transformer is constant,
as well. The radius of the circle is equal to the constant
magnitude of the voltage drop across the short circuit
impedance.
