Figure 2:

The open-delta transformer bank is shown in Fig.2. In this configuration each of the transformer coil
is connected across the lines.

The line to line voltage to be applied at the HV side is 2000V. Induced voltage in the LV coils
will be 1000V.Hence, the line-to-line voltage at the LV side 1000V.
Since, the HV and LV coils are in series with the lines, in order to avoid overload, the line current at the
LV side must be limited to 15A, which automatically fixes the HV side line current to 7.5A.
Hence, the kVA handled by the bank of two single phase transformers.

Q4.Solution

Since, the loads on each transformer is balanced; P

PL1 = 180kW
QL1 = PL1 tan(L1 ) = 180 tan(cos1 (0.85)) = 111.55kV AR
PL2 = 120kW
QL2 = 120 tan(cos1 (0.9)) = 58.11kV AR
Total active power, PT ot = 180 + 120 = 300kW
Total reactive power, QT ot = 111.55 + 58.11 = 170.1kV AR
 
1 170.1
Hence, power factor, P F = cos tan = 0.87 lagging

The current in the secondary side of the transformer is given by,
PT ot 300k
IL2 = = = 452A
3(440)(P F ) 3(440)(0.87)

The line currents are shifted by 30o due to the difference between line and phase quantities and further
by due to the power factor of the load

Q10. Solution

Refering to solution of question 2, we can see that the capacity of the bank reduces to 57.7% of the original rating
This is because in open delta the line can only carry the phase current
Reduction in capacity of transformers = 100-57.7 = 42.3%
