# Voltage Regulation

--
### A transformer's ability to keep its output voltage constant.

--
# Ideal transformer: 
## \$V\_{out}\$ at No Load = \$V\_{out}\$ at Full Load

--
# Practical transformer: 
### \$V\_{out}\$ under load is generally smaller than \$V\_{out}\$ at No Load

---
# Voltage Regulation

## $$\frac{V\_{2(No\;Load)}-V\_{2(Full\;Load)}}{V\_{2(Full\;Load)}}$$
--

## Smaller regulation is better.

## Regulation of an ideal transformer = 0

---
# Voltage Regulation with Phasors

### Neglect the parallel branch (for now)

---
# Voltage Regulation

### Regulation can be calculated at any load.

---
# Voltage Regulation

- ## Inductive: \$V_{reg}>0\$

--
- ## Resistive: \$V_{reg}>0 \$

--
- ## Capacitive: \$V_{reg} = ?\$

# Example:
## For the same transformer(1000 VA) used in the previous problem, calculate the voltage regulation at:

## a) 0.8 pf lagging rated current
## b) 1.0 pf rated current
## c) 0.8 pf leading rated current

### if the output voltage of the transformer is adjusted to be 115 V, under the given load condition.

### You can ignore the parallel branch.

# Transformer Efficiency

# $$\mathrm{Efficiency (\eta) = \frac{Pout}{Pin}}$$

--
## $$\mathrm{Efficiency (\eta) = \frac{Pout}{Pout+\mathrm{Losses}}}$$

---
# Transformer Efficiency

# $$\mathrm{Efficiency (\eta) = \frac{Pout}{Pin}}$$

## $$\mathrm{Efficiency (\eta) = \frac{Pin - Losses}{Pin}}$$

---
# Transformer Efficiency

- ## Constant Losses: Core Losses (Eddy, Hysteresis)

### $$\frac{V_1^2}{Rcore}$$
--

- ## Variable Losses: Copper Losses
### $$I_1^2 (R_1 + R_2')$$
---
# Best Power Transformer

- ## Efficiency as high as possible
- ## Voltage Regulation close to zero
- ## Minimum Cost

## You can only pick TWO from these three!

# Temperature Effect

### How does the resistance change with temperature?

---
# Temperature Effect

## Temperature Coefficient
## $$R(T) = R(T_0)(1 + \alpha\Delta T)$$

--
## For copper α = 0.393 % per degree C

## Resistivity of copper increases by 30 % from 20 C to 100 C.

# Example:
## For the same transformer(1000 VA) used in the previous problems, calculate the efficiency at rated current and 0.8 pf lagging (assuming output voltage is 115 V).

#Question:
## What is the point that the transformer has maximum efficiency?

--
- ## Full Load / Half Load / No Load ?

- ## Unity pf, lagging pf, leading pf?

---
# Transformer Efficiency

## A transformer has highest efficiency while delivering unity pf
