How does frequency affect KVA rating of a transformer?
If a 500 kva, 400 v, 60 hz t/f is to be operated on 50 hz
frequency then how will its KVA rating change?
a-increase
b-decrease
c-remains same
Also explain why do u think like that.
Answer Posted / k r vishnu narayanan
E/f = 4.44*N*phi(max)
E: induced emf
f: frequency
N: number of turns
phi: max flux in the core
When frequency is reduced keeping E constant(at E(max)), flux(phi(max)) has to increase (from eq:)to saturation and harmonics will come into effect. So, there has to be a maximum allowable voltage at a particular frequency and the current too is limited by the saturation effects implying that both V and I has to be limited at a particular frequency (maximum current is always limited by number of turns). Thus their product(kVA) has to be directly proportional to frequency and the answer to this question is b(decrease).
