How many losses in generators?
how we can reduce them?
and also in motors,transformers?
Answer / varun devulapalli
for any machine whether it may be rotating or stationary, the common losses are the iron losses and the copper losses. But in additional for the rotating machines there are mechanical losses. Iron losses comprise of two losses i.e., hysterisis loss and eddy current loss. Hysterisis loss depends on the type of the material used and its B-H curve. Eddy current loss is due to the induction of eddy currents in the armature material. these eddy currents are not useful but they create heat in the machine. so to reduce eddy current losses we use thin laminations in the core with a very thin insulation like paper in between each lamination.
Copper losses are divided into field copper loss and the armature loss. copper losses are the ohmic losses which arrive due to the resistance in the winding. square of the current multiplied by the resistance gives the copper losses.
Mechanical losses comprise of frictional and windage losses. frictional losses arive due to the ageing of the bearings. windage losses are due to the wind that oppose the rotation of the machine in a direction.
less losses leads to maximum efficiency.

Based on CPI/CGPA they shortlist the candidates & than directly start Interview so there is no Written Exam or GD Only PI.Interview held @ MNNIT , ALLAHABAD On-Campus on 6th,Aug, 2007 & the Questions asked to me by Interview Board ( 4 People) are from HR/SummerTraining/BTP/Subject-core, POWER SYSTEM & MACHINE. time duration of I/V is about 15-20 Minutes. HR- Q.1 Name,hobbies & About family background ? Q2.What u know abt NTPC ?? Q3.Why u want to choose NTPC as ur Carrier's starting i.e power sector not any other Oragnisation or sector ?? Techincal Questions- Q1.What is the reason for transformer Noise ?? Q2.Which material is used for making Transformer oil & How u measure its dielectric strength & Name the test ? Q.3 Which Machine u will prefer 2 use if flammble gases are coming out at a place & why ?? Q4.What is relation b/w Transmission Lines & Communication Lines ? Q5.What is the maximum capacity Synchronus Machine & total powerGeneration in our country ? Q.6 In india Power generation is at 50Hz while in America its 60 hz ,why so ?? Advantage or disadvantage ?? Q.7 Maximum Generation Voltage in india ? Q8. What is the Voltage regulation & why its required n how much is permissible ? & causes of voltage variation ?? Q.9 Why electric shock is feel ?? n in a Electric Train why we didnt feel that ? Q.10 Have u seen/ experience of any power plant/ industry related to the power sector ? so these are the questions which not too diffcult i think was asked to me.
