what is stray loss in transformer?

Answer Posted / engr.rasheed aftab

in case of transformer, when load is connected to the
secondary winding so flow load current. this altenating
current generate an alternating field around conductor
(winding. when this alternating field cut the conductor or
winding, an e.m.f induced in that winding.this is called
back e.m.f and current is called eddy current(Lenz's Law).
this eddy current is a cause of losses in transromer
winding. so the losses in transformer winding due to eddy
current are called stray losses. these losses also called
eddy losses. these losses are dependent on the frequency of
altenating supply because skin effect is involve in this
case. thes losses are directly propotional to the frequency.
during inrush current (harmonics) thes losses increase
because frequency increase.

A powerplant has 8 gensets operating in grid parallel mode. In one genset sometimes there is pf variation and kvar variation. The plant operates in pf mode. When this variation is observed the load is stable, voltage is also stable, freq and genset speed is also stable. How will you check the functioning of pf card. What shall be the ideal output vdc of the pfc, from there it is input to AVR?
