* PART—B 10×5=50

Instructions : (1) Answer any five questions.

(2) Each question carries ten marks.


(3) Answers should be comprehensive and criterion for valuation
is the content but not the length of the answer.

11. A transformer has a primary winding of 800 turns and a secondary


winding of 200 turns. When the load current on the secondary is 80 A
at 0.8 power factor lagging, the primary current is 25 A at 0.707 power
factor lagging. Determine the no load current of the transformer and
its phase with respect to the voltage.

12. Obtain the equivalent circuit of a 10 kVA, 450/120 V, 50 Hz, 1-phase


transformer referred to L.V. side from the following test data :

O.C. test (L.V. side) : 120 V, 4.2 A, 80 W

S.C. test (H.V. side) : 9.65 V, 22.2 A, 120 W

13. A 600 kVA, 1-phase transformer has an efficiency of 92% both at full
load and half load at unity p. f. Determine its efficiency at 60% of full
load at 0.8 p. f. lagging.

14. (a) Define all-day efficiency.

(b) A 100 kVA transformer has a full-load loss of 3 kW, the losses
being equally divided between iron and copper. During a day, the
transformer operates on full-load for 6 hrs, half-load for 8 hrs and
* no load for the remaining of the day. Calculate the all-day
efficiency.

15. Explain the procedure of tap changing in On-load tap changer.

16. (a) Derive the emf equation of an alternator.

(b) Derive the expression for distribution factor.

The armature effective resistance and synchronous reactance per
phase are 1.5 ohms and 30 ohms respectively. Calculate the percentage
voltage regulation for a load of 1280 kW, at a p. f. of (a) 0.8 leading and
(b) 0.8 lagging.

18. Explain the effect of change in excitation of an alternator on infinite


busbars.
