Figure 76 illustrates a number of typical high-voltage transformer designswhich have been employed in mihtary radar systems during the past warperiod. Both air insulated and oil immersed types of structures are shown. THE RADAR RECEIVER 815. Fig. 75.—Flexseal treated open-core type power transformers as developed for air-borne radar application.
