Question

1 The transformer is connected up as shown. The line to line voltage on the output is 192V. How should the transformer be wired to result in a 208 line voltage from the secondary? 1.

What is the turns ratio of the transformer if tap 3 is used? 3. Explain the operating principles of a DC motor

Explanation / Answer

1)

For line voltage VL-L = 192 V

Primary is connected to tap = ?

Turns ratio = Vp / Vs (Phase Voltages)

Given transformer rating is 480 V : 208 V (Line-Line Voltage)

From the tap setting table primary should be connected to tap 3 to get primary line voltage 480 V and secondary line voltage to 208 V.

As we know for Delta side line voltage is equal to phase voltage and for star side phase voltage is line voltage by 1.732.

Turns ratio n = 480 / (208/1.732) = 4

Tap setting for 192 V line voltage on secondary is Vs = 192/1.732 = 110.851 V

Primary line voltage is equal to phase voltage Vp = 4*110.851 = 443 V (Line to Line)

Tap = 6 ; from tap setting table.

2)

Turns ratio for tap=3 is

480 : 120

n = 480/120 = 4 ; .................. turns ratio

3)

Operating principle of DC motor which obeys fleming left-hand rule i.e when a current carrying conductor is placed in a magnetic field, mechanical force is experienced on the conductor. This force acts perpendicular to current and induced flux. The conductor starts moving in the direction of the force.

Fleming left-hand rule direction of current is given by center finger, induced flux is given by forefinger and force is given by thumb. The rotor of DC motor starts rotating in the direction of thumb.
