11.4 TRANSFORMER PERFORMANCE 487
Solution
(a) The equivalent circuit of the transformer, referred to the high-voltage (primary) side,
neglecting the exciting current of the transformer, is shown below in Figure E11.4.1(a).
Note that the voltage at the load terminals referred to the high-voltage side is 240× 10 =
2400 V. Further, the load current corresponding to the rated (full) load condition is
50 × 103 / 2400 = 20 .8 A, referred to the high-voltage side. With a lagging power factor
of 0.8,
I ̄ 1 =I ̄ 2 /a= 20. 8 −cos−^10. 8 = 20. 8 − 36 .9°
Using KVL,
V ̄ 1 = 2400 0°+( 20. 8 − 36 .9°)( 1. 5 +j 2. 0 )= 2450 0 .34°
If there is no load, the load-terminal voltage will be 2450 V. Therefore, from Equation
