Q3. Transformers connected in open-delta supply four 50kW,3-phase, 400V induction motors from an 11kV line. At full load, each motor has an efficiency of 95% and operates at 0.80p.f lagging.
a) Determine kVA rating of each of the two transformers and their turns ratio.
b) Determine the line currents on HV and LV sides. At what power factor is each transformer operating?
c) What is the real power supplied by each transformer?
d) What would be the available capacity, if a third transformer of same rating is used to form the closed delta?
