Question: Task 2 ( 2 0 points ) The newly purchased transformer is a one - phase transformer rated at 1 5 kVA, 4 0 0

Task 2
(20 points)
The newly purchased transformer is a one-phase transformer rated at 15kVA,400200V,50 Hz . The transformer is expected to be used as a step-down transformer delivering a rated full load current at unity power factor. The load voltage at the low voltage side is expected to be equal to the rated secondary voltage (i.e.200V). The following results were obtained from conventional open-circuit and short-circuit tests in a students' experiment.
\table[[,Measured Voltage,\table[[Measured],[Current]],\table[[Measured],[Power]],Testing Condition],[\table[[Open-circuit],[test]],Voc=200V,Ioc=0.6A,Poc=60W,\table[[Done on the low],[voltage side]]],[\table[[Short-circuit],[test]],Vsc=15V,Isc=9A,Psc=80W,\table[[Done on the high],[voltage side]]]]
Answer the following questions:
(a) State the purposes of the above-mentioned open-circuit and short-circuit tests.
(2 pts)
(b) Obtain the equivalent circuit referred to the high voltage side of the transformer.
(6 pts)
(c) Calculate the copper losses on full load at unity power factor. (Hint: Copper losses refer to the losses at the windings.)
(3 pts)
(d) Calculate the full load efficiency at unity power factor.
(3 pts)
