20 kVA 250/2500 V tests, equivalent circuit
Short answer
Equivalent circuit referred to primary: shunt branch R0=595.2 Ω, X0=187.2 Ω; series branch R01=0.05 Ω, X01=0.1414 Ω.
A 20 kVA, 250 V/2500 V, 50 Hz single phase transformer gave the following test results: No-load test (on L.V. side): 250 V, 1.4 A, 105 watts Short circuit test (on H.V. side): 120 V, 8 A, 320 watts Calculate the equivalent circuit parameters referred to primary side and draw the equivalent circuit.
Given: 20 kVA, 250 V/2500 V. Primary = LV (250 V), secondary = HV (2500 V), , .
Open-circuit test (on the LV side)
The no-load power is almost entirely core loss, so the shunt branch is found from it.
Short-circuit test (on the HV side)
At the reduced test voltage the core loss is negligible, so the wattmeter reading is the copper loss.
Referring to the LV side
The turns ratio is , so . Impedances are multiplied by when moved from LV to HV, and divided by when moved from HV to LV.
Equivalent circuit referred to the LV side
