Homework 4

This document contains information about two distribution transformers, including their specifications, test results, and questions about calculating their equivalent circuits, losses, efficiency, and voltage regulation. The first transformer is a 100-kVA 8000/277-V transformer with given resistance and reactance values. The second is a 25-MVA, 60-Hz single-phase transformer that was given short-circuit and open-circuit tests, and questions ask to calculate its equivalent impedances referred to both the high-voltage and low-voltage sides.

A 100-kVA 8000/277-V distribution transformer has the following resistances and


reactances:

The excitation branch impedances are given referred to the high-voltage side of the
transformer.
(The values on the nameplate are rated line voltage and line current)
(a) Find the equivalent circuit of this transformer referred to the low-voltage side.
(b) Assume that this transformer is supplying rated load at 277 V and 0.85 PF lagging. What
is this transformer’s input voltage? What is its voltage regulation?
(c) What are the copper losses and core losses in this transformer under the conditions of part
(b)?
(d) What is the transformer’s efficiency under the conditions of part (b)?

(2)
The nameplate on a 25-MVA, 60-Hz single-phase transformer indicates that it has a voltage
rating of 8.0-kV:78-kV. A short-circuit test from the high-voltage side (low-voltage winding
short circuited) gives readings of 4.53 kV, 321 A, and 77.5 kW. An open-circuit test is
conducted from the low-voltage side and the corresponding instrument readings are 8.0 kV,
39.6 A, and 86.2 kW.
a. Calculate the equivalent series impedance of the transformer as referred to the high-voltage
terminals.
b. Calculate the equivalent series impedance of the transformer as referred to the low-voltage
terminals.
