why transformer ratings in kva?

Answer Posted / harit thaker

because transformer depend on the load and we do not know the load which is either inductive or capacitive. when the load connected with transformer so the power factor always reduce so that time reactive power taking action so losses is increase but we maintain the power factor nearly 0.98 to unity at that time only getting active power when power factor reduces the reactive power taking action that time active power become low according to power triangular so that transformer rating is always in kva.

A 15 kw squirrel cage motor having a maximum efficiency of 90% on a continuous full load has temperature rise of 42 degrees celcius after 30 min and 52 degrees celcius after 1 hr under the above operation conditions. a) calculate its final steady state temperature rise on continuous load and the heating time constatnt. b) if the motor is operated on a short load for 9 min estimate its temperature rise. c) calculate the maximum overload that can be applied on a short, 9 min rating so that the temperature rise is the same as the final steady state temperature rise on continuous load.
