1. A 3000/200-V, 50-Hz, 1-phase transformer is built on a core having an effective cross-sectional area of 150 cm2 and has 80 turns in the low-voltage winding. Calculate (a) The value of the maximum flux density in the core (b) The number of turns in the high-voltage winding. [(a) 0.75 Wb/m2 (b) 1200] 2. A double-wound, 1-phase transformer is required to step down from 1900 V to 240 V, 50-Hz. It is to have 1.5 V per turn. Calculate the required number of turns on the primary and secondary windings respectively. The peak value of flux density is required to be not more than 1.2 Wb/m2. Calculate the required cross-sectional area of the steel core. If the output is 10 kVA, calculate the secondary current. [1,267; 160; 56.4 cm2; 41.75 A] 3. The no-load current of a transformer is 5.0 A at 0.3 power factor when supplied at 230-V, 50-Hz. The number of turns on the primary winding is 200. Calculate (i) the maximum value of flux in the core (ii) the core loss (iii) the magnetising current. [5.18 mWb; 345 W; 4.77 A] 4. The no-load current of a transformer is 15 at a power factor of 0.2 when connected to a 460-V, 50-Hz supply. If the primary winding has 550 turns, calculate (a) the magnetising component of no-load current (b) the iron loss (core loss) (c) the maximum value of the flux in the core. [(a) 14.7 A (b) 1,380 W (c) 3.77 mWb] 5. The primary of a certain transformer takes 1 A at a power factor of 0.4 when it is connected across a 200-V, 50-Hz supply and the secondary is on open circuit. The number of turns on the primary is twice that on the secondary. A load taking 50 A at a lagging power factor of 0.8 is now connected across the secondary. What is now the value of primary current ? [25.9 A] 6. The number of turns on the primary and secondary windings of a single-phase transformer are 350 and 38 respectively. If the primary winding is connected to a 2.2 kV, 50-Hz supply, determine (a) the secondary voltage on no-load, (b) the primary current when the secondary current is 200 A at 0.8 p.f. lagging, if the no-load current is 5 A at 0.2 p.f. lagging, (c) the power factor of the primary current. [239 V; 25-65 A; 0.715 lag] 7. A 400/200-V, 1-phase transformer is supplying a load of 25 A at a p.f. of 0.866 lagging. On no-load the current and power factor are 2 A and 0.208 respectively. Calculate the current taken from the supply. [13.9 A lagging V1 by 36.1] 8. A 1-phase transformer is supplied at 1,600 V on the h.v. side and has a turn ratio of 8 : 1. The transformer supplies a load of 20 kW at a power factor of 0.8 lag and takes a magnetising current of 2.0 A at a power factor of 0.2. Calculate the magnitude and phase of the current taken from the h.v. supply. [17.15 A ; 0.753 lag] 9. A 2,200/200-V, transformer takes 1 A at the H.T. side on no-load at a p.f. of 0.385 lagging. Calculate the iron losses. If a load of 50 A at a power of 0.8 lagging is taken from the secondary of the transformer, calculate the actual primary current and its power factor. [847 W; 5.44 A; 0.74 lag] 10. A 400/200-V, I-phase transformer is supplying a load of 50 A at a power factor of 0.866 lagging. The no-load current is 2 A at 0.208 p.f. lagging.
