01․ In a transformer zero voltage regulation is achieved at a load power factor which is
At leading power factor the voltage regulation can be negative or zero. This can be found from this equation
% regulation = εxcosθ - εrsinθ
02․ A transformer has resistance and reactance in per unit as 0.01 and 0.04 respectively. Its voltage regulation for 0.8 power factor lagging and leading will be
Voltage regulation for lagging power factor = (R cosθ + X sinθ)×100
Voltage regulation for 0.8 lagging power factor = (0.01×0.8+0.04×0.6)×100 = 3.2%
Voltage regulation for leading power factor = (R cosθ - X sinθ)×100
Voltage regulation for 0.8 leading power factor = (0.01×0.8 - 0.04×0.6)×100 = -1.6%
03․ The constant losses in transformer is/are
Eddy current loss and hysteresis loss are almost independent of load, significantly depending on supply voltage and frequency. As the flux density or flux is constant for a given voltage and frequency, eddy current loss and hysteresis loss remain constant at any load. Therefore, these losses are called constant losses.
Copper loss varies as the square of load current and called variable loss.
04․ In a transformer, hysteresis and eddy current losses depend upon
05․ In a transformer operating at constant voltage if the input frequency increases, the core loss
06․ If the frequency of input voltage of a transformer is increased keeping the magnitude of voltage unchanged, then
07․ 1 KVA, 230 V, 50 Hz, single phase transformer has an eddy current loss of 30 watts. The eddy current loss when the transformer is excited by a dc source of same voltage will be
08․ A transformer has hysteresis loss of 30 W, at 240 V, 60 Hz. The hysteresis loss at 200 V, 50 Hz will be
09․ A single phase transformer when supplied from 220 V, 50 Hz has eddy current loss of 50 W. If the transformer is connected voltage of 330 V, 75 Hz, the eddy current loss will be
10․ The full load copper loss and iron loss of transformer are 6400W and 5000W respectively. The copper loss and iron loss at half load will be respectively?
Iron losses do not depend on the load, iron losses remain constant for any load. Therefore iron losses are considered as constant losses. Copper losses vary as square of load current and these are considered as variable losses.
