3. What is Impedance Voltage in Transformer?
Answers were Sorted based on User's Feedback
Impedance voltage of a transformer is the voltage required
to
short circuit the secondary winding terminals of the
transformer and apply voltage gradually from zero at
primary winding.increase the voltage gradullay till the
full load current flows in the secondary.The voltage at
which full load current flows that voltage is the impedance
voltage of the transformer.This is required for short
circuit calculations.You can find on the transformer name
plate as Impedance voltage or percentage impedance.

Answer / shantanau mishra
This is the voltage required to drive full load current in a
winding of a transformer when the other winding is short
circuited.
for example if percentage impedance of a 33/11kv transformer
is 6%. it means that 33x6/100=1.98KV would be required to
drive full load current in 33kv winding when 11kv winding is
short circuited.

Answer / md.abul basher
impedence voltage is that voltage which is applied through
primary side and full load current is flowing in secondary
side whwnever short Ckt. of secondary side

Answer / manoj kumar tiwari
The percentage impedance of a transformer is the volt drop
on full load due to the winding resistance and leakage
reactance expressed as a percentage of the rated voltage."
"It is also the percentage of the normal terminal voltage at
on side required to circulate full-load current under short
circuit conditions on other side."
The impedance of a transformer has a major effect on system
fault levels. It determines the maximum value of current
that will flow under fault conditions.
It is easy to calculate the maximum current that a
transformer can deliver under symmetrical fault conditions.
By way of example, consider a 2 MVA transformer with an
impedance of 5%. The maximum fault level available on the
secondary side is:
2 MVA x 100/5 = 40 MVA
and from this figure the equivalent primary and secondary
fault currents can be calculated.
A transformer with a lower impedance will lead to a higher
fault level (and vice versa).
The figure calculated above is a maximum. In practice, the
actual fault level will be reduced by the source impedance,
the impedance of cables and overhead lines between the
transformer and the fault, and the fault impedance itself.

Answer / naufal
Simply it is the percentage of the normal terminal voltage
required to circulate full-load current under short circuit
conditions, or can also be consider as the voltage drop of
the trafo..

Answer / aravind kumar
Impedance voltage is calculated with short-circuit
test.which is very low compared to rated voltage. Impedance
voltage is the voltage which circulates the rated currents
when one of the two windings is shorted.

Answer / gopal birla
Imedance voltage is the amount of voltage required on
primary side to produce rated current on secondry side of
transformer when secondry is short circuited.
Or
amount of voltage drop accros primary side when rated
current flows through it

Answer / hh
Simply,if 10% means voltage drop is 10% of open cct voltage
at full load.

We are preparing another project which involves Waste heat recovery from a 1 MW GE Engine. The Engine in particular gives out flue gas at 487Deg C with a flow rate of 5650 kg/hour and this can be cooled to 180 Deg C. This gives a thermal output of ~ 594 KW that is available for input to VAM via heat exchanger / boiler. Additionally 581 KW will be available from engine jacket water (temperature profile 80/ 80 Deg C and a flow rate of 50m3/hr) Our estimation is that 300 TR of cooling is possible with a suitable VAM machine(s). Please advise what is the most suitable arrangement with maximum TR and min Capital expenditure. plz reply me as early as possible
