    Voltage regulation in transformers at unity power factor

    So I've done part a) Primary current = 200000/415=481.9 Cos θ = -0.8 Sin θ = 0.6 Reg=(481.9 ( 0.014*-0.8 + 0.057*0.6))/415 = 0.0267 Reg% = 2.67% Part b I simply used the same equation but for secondary: @ unity p.f., cos θ =1, sin θ = 0 secondary current = 200000/11000 = 18.18...

    How Can Voltage Regulation Be Achieved for a Sensitive 390V Chiller?

    Hello, I have a problem with chiller. The chiller is connected on 400V AC (+-10%) substation. But, at the end of transmission line, on my chiller terminals, I have 410V, my chiller has Un=390V, so the chiller has often breakdown, probably the electronics are so sensitive...do you have any idea...

    Transformer voltage regulation and calculations

    This particular question is for an assignment. However, I believe that I have the final (correct) answer, but want to check the understanding. I am required to calculate the resistance of the secondary winding of a transformer. The transformer is a 415:11000 V step-up, rated at 200kVA but with...

    Why is Rated Voltage Used for Full Load Voltage Regulation Calculations?

    Hi, I want to calculate voltage regulation of a transfromer. I have learned that voltage regulation is (Vnl-Vfl)/Vfl. While solving some problems for practice I came across multiple questions. In some of them where the load is given I understand how to solve them. I just find the No load...

    LDO voltage regulator stability

    I haven't done any Bode plots before, and so I'm reading about LDO stability and I came across this file, which I am trying to understand: http://www.ti.com/lit/an/slyt194/slyt194.pdf Under the stability analysis, it names the poles and zeroes. How are these calculated? I assume that the...

    Electric Circuit With An Electric Motor - Satellite Project

    I am a software engineering major, and I am having some trouble with an electric circuit in my satellite project. Basically I am trying to generate 1G on the inner surface of a cylinder with a radius of 0.03m, connected to an electric motor which has to rotate at about 173 rpm (to generate 1G...

    Understanding Voltage Regulation in Transformers

    Hi, So I have been told on here that when you eliminate the leakage flux between coils it improves Voltage regulation, I have also read online that voltage regulation is related to inductance, but could anyone elaborate on these? 'why are these so?' [I can sort of guess something like the...

    Testing voltage regulation of MC7805 using active load

    Homework Statement The attachment depicts an active load (to the right is the equivalent circuit). It is called thus because this load (measured from TP27) changes its resistance according to the controlling signal connected to TP25. The load is switched “on” (minimum resistance) and “off”...

    Voltage Regulation for three phase Dzn Transformer

    Hi, I need to calculate the voltage regulation of the 3 ph Dzn transformer. I have knowledge of the current going into the primary winding of the transformer (Delta winding) and hence need to calculate the current in the secondary (load current) so that I can use this in the voltage...

    Voltage Regulation and Loading

    Good evening everyone. I have two questions to ask you guys. 1. Why voltage regulation of a synchronous motor is negative with a purely capacitive load? I mean why? 2. Why Reactive loss is higher than resistive loss in a power distribution line? thank you and have a nice day...

    How can I build a precise voltage regulator for my Nokia N8 car charger?

    I have a nokia N8 cell phone and it is very precise about what it will allow to charge it. Mostly it will only accept wall chargers, not car power in any way. There is no way it knows the car charger isn't in the wall so all I can guess is the power is "dirty" and therefore it denies it. My...

    Negative Voltage Regulation in Transformer

    How can a transformer have negative voltage regulation? A few texts state that a leading power factor can give rise to negative power factor, but I have not been able to figure out how this is possible. One vague explanation in my mind is that capacitance across the secondary terminal will...

    Regulate DC Voltage to Charge 12V Battery

    Ok, so I have a variable DC voltage source that changes as due to outside factors. The voltage ranges between 9 and 18 volts with a current between 1 and 3 amps. I want the voltage source to charge a 12 volt battery continuously until it is full. Whent he battery is full, the circuit should shut...

    Voltage regulation under a capacitive load.

    Homework Statement Why does the voltage regulation of a transformer become negative when a capacitive load is attached? It causes the voltage across the secondary winding to increases rather than decrease, as would be the case for a resistive load. But why? Homework Equations Regulation =...

    Voltage Regulation: How to Calculate Reactive Power

    I a question: 1. How does voltage regulation works? I was told that if we set the value of the capacitor so that it supplies one-half of the reactive power absorbed by the line we will get a perfect voltage regulation. Anyone knows how to come up with the equation?
