Copper losses are energy losses from the windings, due to the currents passing through them. During an open-circuit test, there is no secondary current (so no secondary copper losses) and the primary current is very low (so the primary copper losses are minimum).

Why us the power measured during the open circuit test considered to be approximately equal to the core loss?
During open circuit test on transformer, no load is connected across the secondary side. Hence, the total power drawn by the transformer is only to induce the voltage across the secondary, i.e., core loss AND negligible amount of primary copper loss. As the primary copper losses during open circuit are negligible, it is practice to attribute the open circuit power to core loss.
Why iron loss is constant but copper loss is variable in a transformer?
Iron loss it includes the core loss is partically the same at all loads and copper loss the value of cu loss is found from short circuit test
Short circuit test of transformer what gives?
Gives us Copper loss
Is wattmeter reading under no load test is equal to iron loss of the transformer?
Yes; that is the principle used in no-load tests on transformers. The current in the copper windings is zero on the secondary and low on the primary, so the copper loss is negligible.
Is core loss same as no load loss in transformer?
Yes, that is almost true, apart from a very small copper loss in the primary winding that carries the small magnetising current. The core loss (iron loss) depends on the applied voltage. This loss is measured by the open-circuit test, carried out at the working voltage.

Why does the open-circuit test essentially show only excitation losses and not in copper losses?
In an open circuit test full load current does not flow, hence you wont get copper loss.
How many calorie loss in sperm?
Negligible.

Yes, that is almost true, apart from a very small copper loss in the primary winding that carries the small magnetising current. The core loss (iron loss) depends on the applied voltage. This loss is measured by the open-circuit test, carried out at the working voltage.
How do you use negligible in a sentence?
In a properly functioning automotive engine, daily oil loss should be negligible. The tornado damage to my home was negligible, but my car was destroyed. The news had a negligible effect on the price of the company's stock.
Is copper a borrower or a lender?
Copper loss electrons.
Why do you neglect iron loss in transformer during short circuit test?
in short circuit test we apply rated current with the LV side shorted.so the applied voltage will be very low. iron loss depends on the applied voltage.so it is neglected
Calculate copper losses at 75c?
Copper Loss at 75 C = Copper Loss at Ambient Temperature C * (310/(235+Ambient Temperature C))
Why rated current should flow in the secondary for short circuit?
The short-circuit test runs the rated current through the windings of the transformer to measure the copper-loss, or power lost in the winding resistances. Because the transformer is run at low voltage for this test, there is very little additional power loss in the iron core of the transformer.
