Hi I am still studing and I am wondering why the core for the transformer is been making cylindrical? Beacause of the magnetic forces or just for better using the spice inside the coil????

Transformer core is cylindrical because of following reason:

1: Cylindrical core ease up the winding process. i.e. cylindrical winding.

2: if core is made in square or rectangular shape, then winding must be in square shape, then there are chances of breaking the paper insulation at the edge of square which will result in failure of transformer.
