What is another name for evaporation losses?
uleate
What is the relationship between energy input and energy output and energy losses whenever transfer of energy takes place?
Input energy = output energy + losses
What is thermal energy loss?
Therma losses are heat losses, or losses of heat energy. Just one example is the idea of thermal loss through windows in a structure. Walls can be insulated, but heat energy can pass readily through ordinary window glass. On a cold day, there are a lot of thermal losses from a structure through regular glass windows.
How does energy get wasted in a power station?
In a conventional fossil fuel plant, most of the lost heat goes literally up the chimney. Since nuclear facilities, most of the heat is dumped into the environment by using heat exchangers that put the heat into large bodies of water or rivers. There are other points of loss, but since about 60% to 65% of the power generated in power stations is lost in one of these two ways, the other losses are negligible.
When energy is converted from one form to another. what is usually produced?
If energy is transformed from one form to another, for example electric power to mechanical power in an electric motor, in an ideal situation there would be no losses and therefore an exact equivalent in the new form of energy. In practice there are always losses, the process is not 100 percent efficient. In the above case there will be some thermal losses due to heating in the motor windings, and some windage losses due to air resistance to the moving parts, and some frictional losses in the motor bearings. In this case the losses should not be large. In a power plant operating the Rankine cycle converting thermal energy to electric energy (see link below) large losses are inevitable, and even in the most efficient power stations more energy is lost to the cooling plant (water or air cooling) than is turned into useful output energy.
Why core losses are negligible in short circuit test of transformer?
I am so sorry for your core losses
Why is copper loss negligible during open circuit test?
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 the iron losses absent in short circuit test?
Because a short-circuit test is done at very low voltage to check the transformer windings on their maximum current. The low voltage ensures that the magnetic flux in the transformer's iron core is very low so that the eddy-current losses, usually known as iron losses, are negligible.
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 is it assumed that during open circuit all the losses are core losses?
Since this is an open circuit test, there is no load attached, thus all losses must be internal to the transformer.
What is the reason to use open circuit and short circuit methods to find Transformer losses?
The transformer can be tested on open and short circuit to find the iron losses and copper losses separately, which uses a fraction of the power than having to run the transformer on full-load.
Why there are no losses in DC transmission?
There are losses in d.c. transmission lines, due to their resistance. But there are no reactive losses. So, d.c. transmission lines have less losses in comparison to an equivalent a.c. transmission line.
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.
Why rated current should flow in the secondary for short circuit test in transformer?
Open Circuit test is done to find out core losses of the transformers.which include Eddy Current Losses and Hysteresis Losses only, if during open circuit test secondary will have some load then I2R losses due to load current in secondary as well primary will be included in test results which is not desired while performing Open circuit test.
What wires do you use for an electrical circuit?
wires that have got good conductivity and less losses
Under short circuit test it is said the iron losses are almost zero why?
In a short-circuit test the normal load current is passed through the transformer with minimal voltage applied. This means that the magnetic flux density in the core is also minimal, so that the only losses are the resistive losses of the transformer windings.
What is the resistance of a 30 amp fuse vs a 15 amp fuse?
How technical of an answer do you want? The resistance of any fuse in any circuit should be negligible. If it is not, the circuit or the fuse is poorly designed. Of course there is resistance in the fuse which actually does matter, or else it would be able to handle an infinite amount of current without blowing from excess heat (I^2R losses). In circuits where very small resistances matter, there are other ways to deal with over current issues.
