I suggest you connect your rectifier bridge first then measure the a/c voltage output (it is liable to be higher than 24V). Tot up the total current you will be drawing from this PSU (Steppers, relays etc. etc.) then you have the figures for your capacitor calculation. Also best to make certain that you are not going to try to draw more current from this transformer than it's manufacturers specification. (should have kept the label)
