Homework Statement


Three single phase transformers rated 100kVA, 13.2kV/2.4KV are connected in wye-delta on a 3-phase, 18kV line.

I need to find the maximum load that can be connected to the transformer bank and the outgoing line voltage.


Homework Equations





The Attempt at a Solution


I am completely stuck, so far I've got:
Voltage across primary is 2.4kV therefore voltage across secondary is 13.2kV
Es=13.2\sqrt{3}=22.86kV?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

This can't be right can it? Do you have a 2.4KV transformer connected to an 18KV line?
 
I'm not 100% sure if that's what the question is implying as I'm completely stuck on it.
Thanks for the quick reply though.
 
Well, I don't know how 3 phase transformers are voltage rated, as I haven't studied them. However, if the voltage of a Delta is measured from phase to phase and voltage of a Wye is measured neutral to any phase, then you don't use the factor of sqrt(3).

Thread 'Direction of the magnetic field of an oscillating charge'

Hello everyone, I’m considering a point charge q that oscillates harmonically about the origin along the z-axis, e.g. $$z_{q}(t)= A\sin(wt)$$ In a strongly simplified / quasi-instantaneous approximation I ignore retardation and take the electric field at the position ##r=(x,y,z)## simply to be the “Coulomb field at the charge’s instantaneous position”: $$E(r,t)=\frac{q}{4\pi\varepsilon_{0}}\frac{r-r_{q}(t)}{||r-r_{q}(t)||^{3}}$$ with $$r_{q}(t)=(0,0,z_{q}(t))$$ (I’m aware this isn’t...

Thread 'Initial conditions for orbits around a wormhole'

Hi, I had an exam and I completely messed up a problem. Especially one part which was necessary for the rest of the problem. Basically, I have a wormhole metric: $$(ds)^2 = -(dt)^2 + (dr)^2 + (r^2 + b^2)( (d\theta)^2 + sin^2 \theta (d\phi)^2 )$$ Where ##b=1## with an orbit only in the equatorial plane. We also know from the question that the orbit must satisfy this relationship: $$\varepsilon = \frac{1}{2} (\frac{dr}{d\tau})^2 + V_{eff}(r)$$ Ultimately, I was tasked to find the initial...
