Correct.I really have no 2 phase experience but it would seem to me that the reason for the current x 2 multiplier is that only half your load is carried by one phase
It is the same.Is not quite the same animal as three phase where current circulates between all three phases
It is just the difference in using L-N or L-L voltages and line or phase currents. The exact same thing applies to two-phase circuits except we use sqrt(2) instead of sqrt(3). You sum the power delivered by each winding.therefore the square root of three net result.
I did not check the prior math but the best way seemed to be finally used which was using the power to find the currents. This is much easier since power in = power out + internal losses (which seemed to be the final method used). I am assuming balanced conditions on the primary but I did not feel like checking to see if that is true. I do not know off the top of my head and would have to check for whatever transformer was used. If no one responds and you need to know, I will check it when I am at a more convenient location and have time.
