Q8.Solution

Losses in the transformer at maximum efficiency = 12000(1 − 0.983) = 204W

At maximum efficiency, Core loss and Copper loss are same and is equal to half the losses
∴ Core loss = Copper loss = 204/2 = 104W
For first 10 hours:-
3000
Load kVA = = 3.75kV A
0.8
 2
3.75
∴ Copper loss = 10 × × 104 = 101.56W hr
12
= 0.10156kW hr
Next 6 hours:-
10000
Load kVA = = 11.11kV A
0.9
 2
11.11
∴ Copper loss = 6 × × 104 = 534.9W hr
12
= 0.535kW hr
Next 6 hours:-
15000
Load kVA = = 16.67kV A
0.9
 2
16.67
∴ Copper loss = 6 × × 104 = 1204.2W hr
12
= 1.204kW hr
∴ Total copper loss = 0.1015 + 0.535 + 1.204
= 1.84kW hr
∴ Total Iron loss = 104 × 24
= 2.496kW hr
Total real power consumed for 24 hours = 3000 × 10 + 10000 × 6 + 15000 × 6
= 180kW hr
Total real power consumed + Copper loss + Iron loss = 180 + 2.496 + 1.84
= 184.336kW hr
Total real power consumed for 24 hours 180
∴ All day efficiency = = = 0.9765
Total real power consumed + Copper loss + Iron loss 184.336
= 97.65%
