We store the d.c supply...then why can't we store A.c supply???..

Answer / naresh_alf

the reason is when A.c supply is given the atoms get
thermally vibrated and dissipating energy in the form of
heat so ther is no chance of energy storage....
while coming to d.c supply the thermally vibrations are
absent....... that is the reason we can store the D.c but
not A.c.....

Answer / kamal kishore

We cannot store AC in batteries because AC changes their polarity up to 50 (When frequency = 50 Hz) or 60 (When frequency = 60 Hz) times in a second. Therefore the battery terminals keep changing Positive (+ve) becomes Negative (-Ve) and vice versa, but the battery cannot change their terminals with the same speed so that’s why we can’t store AC in Batteries.

0 Answers Duke Energy,

The capacity of the transformer is 20/25 MVA, Ratio is 132/11 KV, Vactor group YNyno. and impedance is 10.07%. As per the calculation the secondary current is 1312.2Amps. The maximum fault current the transformer should sustain is 13.030KA. How many times the transformer should sustain the maximum short circuit current of 13.030KA over a period up 1 Year. The transformer is repaired one & 10 Years old.
