Leakage Inductance Calculation

      Dear ALL,

      I have performed a transformer simulation with primary and secondary windings having the same number of turns, using an E-core. I calculated the leakage inductance considering two scenarios:

      1. Without a core gap – Leakage inductance: 26.5 µH
      2. With a 2 mm gap on all three legs – Leakage inductance: 22.9 µH

      However, the results seem unrealistic. While the primary inductance significantly decreased from 2150 µH to 87.271 µH with the 2 mm gap, the leakage inductance remained almost unchanged.

      Could you please help me verify and correctly calculate the leakage inductance?

      Hi, I would like to know how the leakage inductance was calculated? Did you use coupling coefficient or short circuit test?
