Which evolves to this in Load flows and fault studies
as no load losses don’t contribute to fault currents and
Rw is small as we want low loss transformers

The turns ratio is determined by the voltage ratio but you have to be
careful as we have to consider the transformer connection delta

What is Transformer Noise
We have have heard the humming of a transformer
It is cause by the alternating current cause the core
steel to expand and contract 2 times during one
cycle of AC.
Therefore the fundamental frequency of the noise
at 60 Hz is 120 Hz.
Because the steel is not well confined in some
areas you can get multiple vibrations producing
3,5,7 harmonic also.
Fans and pumps also produce transformer noise.

Consequences of Regulation
1. Rated voltage is not maintained on the secondary of the
transformer
2. The measured kVA on the primary (input) terminals will
not equal the measured kVA on the secondary (output)
terminals.
3. The measured kVA on the secondary terminals will not
equal the effective kVA load on the transformer.
4. The effective per unit kVA load on the transformer will
equal the per unit secondary current.
5. The kVA loading capabilities derived from loading
programs cannot be applied to the measurements on the
secondary terminals.
6. The application of LTC switches to compensate for the
secondary voltage drop does not negate the conclusions
listed above.

Remedies for Regulation
Autotransformers
A transformer
in which at
least two
windings have
a common
section.
31
Autotransformer Properties
Autotransformer Co-
Co-ratio = series / (series + common)
32
Tertiary Windings
An additional winding in a transformer that can be used for one
or more of the following purposes:
To stabilize voltages to neutral during unbalanced system
conditions, when delta connected
To reduce the effects of 3rd harmonic currents and voltages,
when delta connected
To reduce the zero-
zero-sequence impedance of the transformer
To carry load at a 3rd voltage
To apply power factor correction capacitors or reactors
To provide a location for detecting zero-
zero-sequence currents for
relaying purposes
