How Do low voltage to high voltage transformers work?

Im generating an ac current of 700v, per generator, however i need to average about 1000 v per generator. i need to transform that lower voltage into the higher one. i then need to convert that ac current into dc to store the energy. how does the process of generating low to high voltage work??How Do low voltage to high voltage transformers work?It is exactly the symmetry of doing a step down of voltage: two coils are laid out on a common frame. The one that is powered (your input voltage) will create an induction in the other coil. The ratio of the number of loops in each coil determines the voltage ratio. Since you want to go from 700 V to 1000 V, then the input coil will have 7 loops for every 10 the output needs to have.



Converting AC to DC is done using what is known as a 'rectifier'. You can have half waves rectifiers, and full waves rectifiers. Those rely on a specific arrangement of diodes (which only let current through when it has the proper polarity).
