  • Question 1
    1 / -0
    A 5kV/400V, 75 kVA single phase transformer has a series reactance of 0.12 pu. The reactance in ohms referred to LV and HV sides are to be
    Solution

     \(X\left( {pu} \right) = \frac{{X\left( {\rm{\Omega }} \right) \times MVA}}{{{{\left( {kV} \right)}^2}}}\)

    HV side: \(0.12 = \frac{{X\left( {\rm{\Omega }} \right) \times 75 \times {{10}^{ - 3}}}}{{{{\left( 5 \right)}^2}}} \Rightarrow X\left( {\rm{\Omega }} \right) = 40\;{\rm{\Omega }}\)

    LV side: \(0.12 = \frac{{X\left( {\rm{\Omega }} \right) \times 75 \times {{10}^{ - 3}}}}{{{{\left( {0.4} \right)}^2}}} \Rightarrow X\left( {\rm{\Omega }} \right) = 0.256\;{\rm{\Omega }}\)

  • Question 2
    1 / -0
    The % resistance and the % leakage reactance of a 5 kVA, 220 V/ 440 V, 50 Hz, single phase transformer are respectively 3 % and 4 %. The voltage to be applied to the HV side, to carry out SC test at rated current is _______ (in V)
    Solution

    Percentage rated voltage required to produce short circuited current = % impedance of transformer

    % resistance (%R) = 3 %

    % reactance (%X) = 4 %

    % impedance, \(\% Z = \sqrt {{{\left( {\% R} \right)}^2} + {{\left( {\% X} \right)}^2}} = 5\% \)

    Percentage rated voltage required to produce short circuited current = 5%

    The voltage to be applied to the HV side = 5% of 440 V = 22 V
  • Question 3
    1 / -0

    For a single phase, 5 kVA, 200 V/ 400 V, 50 Hz transformer, the equivalent circuit parameters referred to HV side are given below.

    Rm2 = 1066 Ω, Xm2 = 800 Ω, Re2 = 1.12 Ω, X2e = 1.14 Ω

    What should be the applied voltage to the LV side when the transformer delivers rated current at 0.7 power factor lagging, at a terminal voltage of 400 V?
    Solution

    Concept:

    Voltage regulation is the change in secondary terminal voltage from no load to full load at a specific power factor of load and the change is expressed in percentage.

    E2 = no-load secondary voltage

    V2 = full load secondary voltage

    Voltage regulation for the transformer is given by the ratio of change in secondary terminal voltage from no load to full load to no load secondary voltage.

    Voltage regulation \(= \frac{{{E_2} - {V_2}}}{{{E_2}}}\)

    To calculate the regulation of the transformer at load current I2 and load power factor cos ϕ, we use the following formula in terms of HV side parameters.

    Per unit regulation, VR \( = \frac{{{I_2}{R_{e2}}\cos \phi + {I_2}{X_{e2}}\sin \phi }}{{{V_{20}}}}\)

    The difference between the reflected primary supply voltage magnitude \(V_1^{'}\) and the secondary load terminal voltage magnitude V2 is the numerator of the voltage regulation formula.

    \(V_1^{'} - {V_2} = {I_2}{R_{e2}}\cos \phi + {I_2}{X_{e2}}\sin \phi \)

    \( \Rightarrow V_1^{'} = {V_2} + {I_2}{R_{e2}}\cos \phi + {I_2}{X_{e2}}\sin \phi \)

    Calculation:

    \({I_2} = \frac{{5 \times {{10}^3}}}{{400}} = 12.5\;A\)

    \(V_1^{'}\) = 400 + 12.5 × 1.12 × 0.7 + 12.5 × 1.14 × 0.71

    = 419.92 V

    Turns ratio (a) = 200/400 = 0.5

    \({V_1} = aV_1^{'} = 0.5 \times 419.92 \approx 210\;V\)

  • Question 4
    1 / -0

    A voltage V = 400 sin 314t is applied to the transformer winding in a no load test. The resulting current is found to be i = 5 sin (314 t - 30°) find the core loss______watt

    Solution

    Core loss \(= V{I_0}\cos {\phi _0} = \frac{{400}}{{\sqrt 2 }} \times \frac{5}{{\sqrt 2 }}\cos 30^\circ = 866\;W\)

  • Question 5
    1 / -0

    A single-phase transformer on open circuit condition gave the following test results:

    Applied voltage

    Frequency

    Power drawn

    192 V

    40 Hz

    39.2 W

    288 V

    60 Hz

    73.2 W

     

    The hysteresis and eddy current losses of the transformer respectively are, if the transformer is supplied with 240 V, 50 Hz.
    Solution

    Concept:

    Hysteresis losses: These are due to the reversal of magnetization in the transformer core whenever it is subjected to alternating nature of magnetizing force.

    \({W_h} = \eta B_{max}^xfv\)

    \({B_{max}} \propto \frac{V}{f}\)

    Where

    x is the Steinmetz constant

    Bm = maximum flux density

    f = frequency of magnetization or supply frequency

    v = volume of the core

    At a constant V/f ratio, hysteresis losses are directly proportional to the frequency.

    Wh  f

    Eddy current losses: Eddy current loss in the transformer is I2R loss present in the core due to the production of eddy current.

    \({W_e} = K{f^2}B_m^2{t^2}V\)

    \({B_{max}} \propto \frac{V}{f}\)

    Where,

    K - coefficient of eddy current. Its value depends upon the nature of magnetic material

    Bm - Maximum value of flux density in Wb/m2

    t - Thickness of lamination in meters

    f - Frequency of reversal of the magnetic field in Hz

    V - Volume of magnetic material in m3

    At a constant V/f ratio, eddy current losses are directly proportional to the square of the frequency.

    We  f2

    Iron losses or core losses or constant losses are the sum of both hysteresis and eddy current losses.

    Wi = W + We

    At constant V/f ratio, Wi = Af + Bf2

    Calculation:

    The table below shows the given data.

     

    Voltage (V)

    Frequency (f)

    V/f ratio

    No load losses (W)

    Case 1

    192 V

    40 Hz

    4.8

    39.2

    Case 2

    288 V

    60 Hz

    4.8

    73.2

    Case 3

    240 V

    50 Hz

    4.8

     

     

    The V/f ratio is constant in all the cases as shown in the above table.

    Now, the equations for Case 1 and Case 2 are given below

    Case 1: 39.2 = A (40) + B (40)2

    Case 2: 73.2 = A (60) + B (60)2

    By solving the above two equations,

    A = 0.5, B = 0.012

    Case 3: Hysteresis losses (Wh) = af = 0.5 × 50 = 25 W

    Eddy current losses (We) = bf2 = 0.012 × (50)2 = 30 W

  • Question 6
    1 / -0

    The following data were obtained from testing a 48 kVA, 4800/240 V, 50 Hz transformer.

    OC test from LV side

    240 V

    2 A

    120 W

    SC test from HV side

    150 V

    10 A

    600 W

     

    The maximum efficiency (in %) of the transformer for 0.8 lagging power factor load is ________ (up to two decimal places)
    Solution

    Concept:

    The efficiency of the Transformer \((\eta ) = \frac{{XS\cos \phi }}{{XS\cos \phi + {P_i} + {X^2}{P_e}}}\)

    Where, X = Fraction of load

    S = Apparent power in kVA

    Pi = Iron losses

    Pcu = Copper losses

    Maximum efficiency of transformer occurred at a fraction of load, \(X = \sqrt {\frac{{{P_i}}}{{{P_{cu}}}}}\)

    In a transformer, a short circuit test is used to find copper losses and the open circuit is used to find core losses.

    Calculation:

    From the given table, iron losses (Wi) = 120 W

    Copper losses (Wcu) = 600 W

    kVA rating of the transformer at maximum efficiency \( = \sqrt {\frac{{{W_i}}}{{{W_{cu}}}}} \times kVA = \sqrt {\frac{1}{5}} \times 48 = 21.467\;kVA\)

    Maximum efficiency, \(\eta = \frac{{21.467 \times {{10}^3} \times 0.8}}{{21.467 \times {{10}^3} \times 0.8 + 120 + 600{{\left( {\frac{1}{{\sqrt 5 }}} \right)}^2}}} \times 100 = 98.621\;\% \)

  • Question 7
    1 / -0
    The maximum value of the flux in the core of a 5000/500 V, 50 Hz single phase transformer is 8.21 mWb. The number of turns in primary (N1) and secondary winding (N2) are
    Solution

    Primary voltage, \({V_1} = 4.44{\phi _m}{N_1}\)

    \(\begin{array}{l} \Rightarrow {N_1} = \frac{{{V_1}}}{{4.44{\phi _m}{N_1}}}\\ \Rightarrow {N_1} = \frac{{5000}}{{4.44 \times 50 \times 8.21 \times {{10}^{ - 3}}}} = 2744\\\frac{{{V_2}}}{{{V_1}}} = \frac{{{N_2}}}{{{N_1}}}\\ \Rightarrow {N_2} = {N_1} \times \frac{{{V_2}}}{{{V_1}}} = 2744 \times \frac{{500}}{{5000}} = 274.4\end{array}\)

  • Question 8
    1 / -0
    A 600 kVA transformer has an efficiency of 95% at full load and also at 60% of full load; both at U.P.F. Determine the efficiency (in %) of transformer at 3/4 th full load.
    Solution

    \(\eta = \frac{{600 \times 1}}{{600 \times 1+{P_i} + {P_c}}} = 0.95\)

    Pi + Pc = 31.58     ----(1)

    \(\frac{{600 \times 0.6}}{{600 \times 0.6 + {P_i} + 0.36{P_c}}} = 0.95\)

    Pi + 0.36 PC = 18.95     ----(2)

    Salving equs (1) and (2) we get

    Pi = 11.846

    Pc = 19.734

    at ¾ th full load.

    \(\eta = \frac{{600 \times 0.75}}{{600 \times 0.75 + 11.846 + {{\left( { 0. 75} \right)}^2} \times 19.734}}\)

    η = 95.15%
