7..List the various losses in a transformer and state the condition for
maximum efficiency:
Core loss
Copper loss
Condition for maximum efficiency:
Iron loss = copper loss
12.Write the emf equation of a transformer and explain the terms used:
E=4.44 φm f N (volts)
19. What is the need for conducting O.C and S.C tests in a
transformer.?
For the calculation of Iron loss and copper losses so as to determine the
efficiency of the transformer.
22. Explain how the flux in the core is practically maintained constant?
The secondary current sets up its own flux which is in opposition to main
flux called demagnetising amp turns.For a moment v1 gains E1 and hence
more current to flow in primary.Additional current called i2’ known as load
component of primary current.Magnetic effects of secondary current i2 are
immediately neutralized by additional primary current i2’ hence the net flux
is constant.
TRANSFORMERS
GROUP---A
X0=e1/i0 R0=e1/iw
E2/E1=n2/n1=k
Primary eqvt of secondary induced vg E2’=E2/K V2’=V2/k i2’=ki2
For transferring secondary impedance to primary multiply by k^2
R2’=R2/K^2 X2’=X2/k^2 z2’=Z2/k^2
Total eqvt circuit of transformer is obtained by adding in the primary
impedance simplification can be made by transferring the exciting
circuit across the terminals
Further simplification may be achieved by ommiting i0 altogether
