Electrical machines 1.A single-phase transformer when supplied from 220V, 50Hz has eddy current loss of 50W. If the transformer is connected to a voltage of 330V, 50Hz, the eddy current loss will be Ans:112.5W 2.

Power electronics 1. A 240V, 50Hz supply feeds a highly inductive load of 50 Ohm resistance through a thyristor full control bridge. when the firing angle = 45, load
power is Exp: Vav = (2Vm/) * cos = [(2 * 339)/3.14] cos 45 = 152.6V Iav = Vav/R = 152.6 / 50 = 3.05A = Irms P = Square of Irms * R = 3.04 * 3.04 * 50 = 466W

2. A d.c. to d.c. chopper operates from a 48 V source with a resistive load of 24Ohm. The chopper frequency is 250Hz. When Ton= 3 ms, the rms
current is Exp: Vav = V *f * Ton = 48 * 250 * 3 *(10 - 3) = 36V Iav = Vav/R = 36/24 = 1.5 A Vrms = V* Square root (Ton) * f = 48 * 0.75 = 41.6V Irms = Vrms/R = 41.6/24 = 1.73A 3.
