Q6. c) Transformers connected in open-delta supply four 25kW, 3-phase, 400V induction motors from an 11kV
line. At full load, each motor has an efficiency of 95% and operates at 0.85p.f lagging.
i) Determine kVA rating of each of the two transformers and their turns ratio.
ii) Determine the line currents on h.v and l.v sides. At what power factor is each transformer operating?
iii) What is the real power supplied by each transformer?
iv) What would be the available capacity, if a third transformer of same rating is used to form the closed
delta?
Q6.d) The short-circuit tests on two single phase transformers gave the following results:
200 kVA: 3% rated voltage; rated current at 0.25 p.f. lag.
500 kVA: 4% rated voltage; rated current at 0.3 p.f. lag.
These two transformers are connected in parallel. How do they share a load of 560 KW at 0.8 p.f. lag?
Q6.e) A single phase two winding 120 kVA, 2000/200 V transformer is to be used an auto-transformer for
stepping up the voltage from 2000 V to 2400 V. At rated load, the two-winding transformer has 2.5%
loss, 3.5% voltage regulation and 4.5% impendence. Determine the following for the auto-transformer:
(i) voltage and current rating (ii) kVA rating (iii) efficiency (iv) regulation and (v) short-circuit current
on each side.
Q6.f) The O.C and S.C test data are given below for a single phase, 5 kVA, 200V/400V, 50Hz transformer.
Draw the equivalent circuit of the transformer referred to LV side inserting all the parameter values.
Q6.g) Find the flux per pole of a 50kW d.c generator having 4 poles, and a lap wound armature with 320
conductors. The machine is run at a speed of 750rpm and generates 480V. Resistance of the armature and
shunt fields are 0.75 ohm and 250 ohms respectively. Find the current flowing through the armature at full
load and the terminal voltage.
Q6.h) A 4 pole d.c shunt generator with a lap wound armature has an armature resistance of 0.15 ohm and a
field resistance of 75ohms. The generator supplies sixty 100V, 40W lamps. Find the current in each
armature conductor and the generator emf. The brush contact drop is 1V per brush.
