A 5 kW with a lagging power factor of 0.5 is connected to the low-voltage terminals of the transformer. Assuming rated voltage across the load:
(i) Calculate the current and voltage on the high-voltage side and the voltage regulation of the transformer (\(5\mathbf{m k s}\)).
(ii) Explain why you can neglect the excitation branch in your calculations (2mks).
(iii) Determine the transformer efficiency (2mks).
(iv) Calculate the reactive power consumed by the transformer and indicate its proportion in \% with respect to the total apparent power drawn from the supply (4mks).
(c) State three advantages of an autotransformer (3mks)
(d) You are given a \(25\mathrm{~kW},230\mathrm{~V}\) DC shunt motor with armature resistance, \(\mathrm{Ra}=0.14\Omega \). The no load speed of the motor at rated voltage is 1980 rpm and armature current is 8.2 A . The field resistance is \(120\Omega \). When the machine is operated at full load (rated voltage), its armature current is 160 A but its flux is \(7.5\%\) less than the no load value.
(i) Sketch the diagram for the shunt connected motor, showing clearly the direction of armature current, and the field resistance (2mks).
(ii) Calculate the values of induced voltage, Ea, for the no load and full load cases (\(\mathbf{4 m k s}\)).
(iii) By using the ratio of voltages/ speeds and considering the flux decrease, determine the speed at full load (3mks)
