Inductance is proportional to N², but voltage is proportional to N.
You must redo your inductance calculation.

					Two things I notice instantly:
Primary voltage should be 311V. Voltages in SPICE are peak.
You don't run a 50Hz transient for only 10ms.

OK, replaced SQRT() with x**2
  Tap-to-tap differences and voltages are slightly better.
  18VAC winding is a bit worse, though.

						Re: Need Current Source with User selectable current and voltage compliance
					
					
				
				
				 
					LTspice has a few kinds of "ideal" models.  I used both kinds.
If you used any "real" diode (one with a part number), there's chances of a few factors that could affect results.
