  1. 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
    1. 250 W and 2.5 W
    2. 250 W and 62.5 W
    3. 312.5 W and 62.5 W
    4. 312.5 W and 250 W
Correct Option: B


Given 50 Hz transformer

Here
– v
ratio maintains constant .
f

∴ Wn = Af;
We = B – f2
where, A = 10
and B = tan θ =
5
= 0.1
50

∴ Wn at 25 Hz = 10 × 25 = 250 W
We at 25 Hz = 0.1 × (25)2 = 62.5 W
