| contents | Rotary transformers are commonly used in wound rotor resolvers to transfer excitation signals to the rotating winding without mechanical contact. In many analyses, the rotary transformer is modeled as an ideal transformer, where the voltage transfer ratio is assumed to be equal to the turns ratio. However, in miniature rotary transformers used in compact resolver systems, leakage inductance can become comparable to the magnetizing inductance due to reduced core dimensions and unavoidable air gaps, leading to deviations from the ideal voltage transfer behavior. This paper presents an accurate equivalent circuit model for miniature rotary transformers employed in wound rotor resolvers. The proposed model analytically derives the magnetizing and leakage inductances using a magnetic equivalent circuit that accounts for flux fringing and air gap effects. The model is validated through three dimensional finite element analysis and experimental measurements on a fabricated prototype under both no load and resolver excitation conditions. The results demonstrate improved prediction accuracy of the secondary voltage compared with conventional models, enabling more reliable characterization of excitation transfer in compact resolver systems. |
