Why motor is not calculated in kva, whereas transormers are
calculated in kva
Answer Posted / electrical ravi
Normaly Source is rated in KVA where as appliance/Load is
rated in KW.
Transformer converts product of V1 X I1 into V2I2, there is
no lead or lag pf at no Load, so the manufacturer specify
the rating of the transformer in KVA.
In motor, the electrical energy is converted to mechanical
energy and there is losses within the unit and there is
phase difference between voltage and current and thus
forming a builin power factor. So the manufacturer of motor
specifies the rating in KW with powerfactor value on its
name plate.

A 15 kw squirrel cage motor having a maximum efficiency of 90% on a continuous full load has temperature rise of 42 degrees celcius after 30 min and 52 degrees celcius after 1 hr under the above operation conditions. a) calculate its final steady state temperature rise on continuous load and the heating time constatnt. b) if the motor is operated on a short load for 9 min estimate its temperature rise. c) calculate the maximum overload that can be applied on a short, 9 min rating so that the temperature rise is the same as the final steady state temperature rise on continuous load.
