For which purpose the temp. rise test of transformer is
conducted?

Answer Posted / shoaib9786

You see, when the current in a transformer increases, the
losses inturen increase because losses= I*I*R.

The Losses in a transformer is dissipated in the form of
heat. This is nothing but temperature rise. Hence, a
temperature rise test is conducted in order to maintain the
temperature of the windings and core within limits, and to
check the losses.

Hope that answers.

FOR 16/20 MVA 132/33 KV ONAN/ONAF TYPE TRANSFORMER IT IS DESIGNED FOR 16 MVA WITH ONAN CONDITION.IT BECOMES 20 MVA UNDER ONAF CONDITION.LOAD LOSS IS GUARANTEED FOR 65KW AT 20 MVA AND % IMPEDANCE 13.75. PLEASE TELL US AT WHAT LOAD LOSS AND % IMPEDANCE IT SHOULD BE DESIGNED FOR 16 MVA AND WHAT WILL BE ITS EFFICIENCY AT 20 MVA?
