AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on calculating the turn ratio, kVA rating, and primary current of an ideal transformer rated at 11000/4600 V with a secondary current of 30A. The turn ratio is determined to be 0.418 using the formula N=V2/V1. The kVA rating is calculated as 138 kVA by multiplying the secondary voltage (4600 V) by the secondary current (30 A). The primary current is found to be 12.5 A using the relationship between primary and secondary voltages and currents. The calculations presented are confirmed to be correct.

Homework Statement


Ideal Transformer:
rated: 11000/4600 V
secondary current: 30A

Find turn ratio, kVA rating, primary current

Homework Equations


S=VI
N=V2/V1

The Attempt at a Solution


Are these correct?
Turn ratio: N=V2/V1 = 0.418
kVA = S1*I1 = S2*I2 = 4600*30 = 138kVA
Primary current: V1*I2 = V2*I2=>I1=(4600*30)/(11000) = 12.5A
