  1. A 220 V, 60 Hz single-phase transformer has hysteresis loss of 340 watts and eddy current loss of 120 watts. If the transformer is operated from, 230 V, 50 Hz supply mains, then total core-loss, assuming steinmetz’s constant equal to 1.6 will be _______ w .
    1. 119.3 watt
    2. 539.3 watt
    3. 51.3 watt
    4. None of the above
Correct Option: B

⇒ Bm2 = 1.255 Bm1
∴ Ph2 = Ph1 ×
f2 Bxm2
f1 Bxm1

= 340 ×

(1.255)1.6 = 408.0 watts

Pe2 = Pe1 ×

Total loss= Ph2 + Pe2 = 408 + 131.3 = 539.3 watt.
