Problem # 1 Marks: 30
Consider the following circuit;

Figure 1

Find the load voltage 𝑉𝑙𝑜𝑎𝑑 and the power dissipation 𝑃𝑍𝑙𝑖𝑛𝑒 across the transmission line
for the following cases.

a. By shifting all impedances from secondary sides of T1, T2 to their primary sides.
b. By shifting all impedances from primary sides of T1, T2 to their secondary sides.
c. Without any shifting.
Prove that in all of the above parts 𝑉𝑙𝑜𝑎𝑑 and 𝑃𝑍𝑙𝑖𝑛𝑒 has the same values.

Note: In above circuit ‘ a ’ represents the turns ratio of transformers. You need to
calculate the value of ‘ a ’ using your roll number as per following formula;

a = Sum of Digits of Your Roll Number

For example if your Roll # is = 15F-8086, then a = 8 + 0 + 8 + 6 = 22

Problem # 2 Marks: 30
A 15 kVA, 2300𝑉/230𝑉 transformer is to be tested to determine its excitation branch
components, its series impedances and its voltage regulation. The following test data
have been taken from the primary side of the transformer.

Table 1

a. Calculate the parameters of transformer and draw the approximate equivalent

circuit of transformer referring to the primary side.
b. Calculate the voltage regulation of the transformer at lagging power factor of 0.8.
c. Calculate the efficiency of the transformer at lagging power factor of 0.8.

Note:

1. In Table 1, all the currents are in units of ‘A’, all the voltages are in units of ‘V’
and all the powers are in units of ‘W’.
2. In Table 1, use the value of ‘ a ’ which you calculated for Problem # 1.
