I am simulating a inverter design based on 4047 IC. The 220V ac output voltage graph is as shown, is this correct or typical type of waveform from such circuit?

What is the purpose of the 220Vac output?
For powering some electronic devices, a quasi-sinewave (stepped) output that has both the peak and RMS value of a sinewave may be better.

That can be generated from the CD4047 output with the addition of a CD4017 counter and a couple of OR gates (example circuit below using a 555 instead of a CD4047 to generate the clock. Note that the RMS value for the bottom composite trace is equal to that of a sine-wave with a 5V peak value).

I haven't simulated it, but I initially doubt that a a CD4047 can supply enough Current
to reliably and quickly switch the 1.5nF FET-Gates.

I think it would be a much better idea to simply spend the ~$20.oo for a Commercial-Inverter from Walmart.

whats the transformer primary and secondary inductances? I tried to use the software you used but its not running here because i am using windows 7.
thanks
In my circuit, the inductance of a winding with a large number of turns is 10H. The inductance of the windings L =w^2*AL. In this case, AL=10H/2000^2. Count it. In addition, the magnetic coupling coefficient is set. In a real transformer, the inductance can be even greater, as well as the magnetic coupling coefficient. Another transformer will require a different capacitor capacity. I'm sorry that you don't have Win10,11. Some managed to install Qspice on Win7. I didn't do it.

It looks to me as though the transformer inductances are far too low.
But please, do us all a favour, and draw a proper circuit diagram, not one out of a kiddies' colouring book.
I agree with Ian's analysis, the inductance is far to low for that transformer at 50Hz. If it could be resonated at 50 Hz with a suitable shunt capacitor it could look better.
