An open circuit test is performed on 50 H z transformer, using variable frequency source and keeping V/f ratio constant, to separate its eddy current and hysteresis losses. The variation of core loss/frequency as function of frequency is shown in the figure
The hysteresis and eddy current losses of the transformer at 25 Hz respectively are
-
- 250 W and 2.5 W
- 250 W and 62.5 W
- 312.5 W and 62.5 W
- 312.5 W and 250 W
Correct Option: B
Given 50 Hz transformer
Here | ratio maintains constant . | |
f |
∴ Wn = Af;
We = B – f2
where, A = 10
and B = tan θ = | = 0.1 | |
50 |
∴ Wn at 25 Hz = 10 × 25 = 250 W
We at 25 Hz = 0.1 × (25)2 = 62.5 W
