SECTION-B

Two coils having 100 and 150 turns respectively are wound side by side on a closed iron circuit of section 125 cm2 and mean length 250 cm. If the permeability of iron is 2000, calculate

  1. self-inductance of each coil
  2. the mutual
  3. the emf induced in the second coil if current in the first changes from 0 to 5 A in 0.02s.

Explain the function and operation of on-load tap changing transformers.

Explain with the help of connection and phasor diagrams, how a SCOTT connection is used to obtain two phase supply from three-phase supply.

SECTION-C

  1. (a) Explain the process of voltage build up in a dc shunt generator.
    (b) An 8-pole lap wound armature rotated at 350 rpm is required to generate 260V. The useful flux per pole is about 0.05 Wb. If the armature has 120 slots, calculate a suitable number of conductors per slot and hence determine the actual flux required to generate the same voltage.
  2. --- Content provided by⁠ FirstRanker.com ---

  3. (a) Derive the torque equation of a dc machine.
    (b) A dc series motor drives a load, the torque of which varies as the square of speed. The motor takes a current of 15 A at 600 rpm. Calculate the speed and current when the motor field winding is shunted by a diverter of the same resistance as that of the field winding. Mention the assumptions made if any.
  4. (a) State the conditions to be fulfilled for operating two three-phase transformers in parallel. Also enumerate the advantages of parallel operation.
    (b) A 100 kVA, 50 Hz, 440/11000 V, single-phase transformer has an efficiency of 98.5% when supplying full load current at 0.8 pf lagging and an efficiency of 99% when supplying half full load current at unity power factor. Find the core and copper loss corresponding to full load current. At what value of load current will the maximum efficiency be attained?
