GATE PRACTICE BOOKLET (B B )

VOLUME II

Dear Students,

Solutions of all previous GATE Questions are already available. Every year about 20% of questions will have repetitive nature. However, rest of the questions are from untapped areas (never asked areas) and few from Previous Engineering Services & Civil Services Questions. Keeping this in view, possible questions are prepared in various subjects (chapter wise) along with their hints/solutions. The student is advised to practice the questions systematically so that their chances of getting high score in GATE Exam will increase.

The student is advised to solve the problems without referring to the solutions. The student has to analyze the given question carefully, identify the concept on which the question is framed, recall the relevant equations, fi nd out the desired answer, verify the answer with the fi nal key such as (a), (b), (c), (d), then go through the hints to clarify his answer. This will help to face numerical answer questions better. The student is advised to have a standard text book ready for reference to strengthen the related concepts, if necessary. The student is advised not to write the solution steps in the space around the question. By doing so, he loses an opportunity of effective revision.

As observed in the GATE Exam, number of sets may be possible, being online exams. Hence, don’t skip any subject. All are equally important.It is believed that this book is a Valuable aid to the students appearing for competitive exams like ESE, JTO, DRDO, ISRO and Other PSU’s. This book can also be used by fresh Teachers in Engineering in improving their Concepts.

With best wishes to all those who wish to go through the following pages.

Sol: For a given transformer, hysteresis loss

13. Ans: (c)

Sol: Ratings 5 kV; 25 Hz. At full load, let copper losses, hysteresis losses and eddy current losses be Wcu, Wh, We watts respectively.

It is operated at 10 kV, 50 Hz. Since V/f ratio is kept constant, maximum core flux-density is constant. So hysteresis losses are proportional to frequency and eddy current losses are proportional to square of frequency.

New hysteresis loss = 2 Wh New eddy current loss = 4 We Copper losses: At 10 kV; current is still

assume at the rated value, so that power output doubles. Copper losses remain the same in watts, so that as a percentage of power output; copper losses become 0.7%. As a percentage of the new power output hysterisis loss remains the same at 0.6%, while eddy current losses become 20.5=1% of near output. 0.7, 0.6 and 1 is the answer.

Sol: The no-load (open-circuit) equivalent circuit is as shown.

(Symbols have the usual meanings) Neglecting effect of temperature changes, r,

is constant. Neglecting saturation at constant frequency, x, & x m are constant. With an

increase in voltage while frequency is kept constant, the maximum flux density in the core increases. Hysterisis losses and eddy current losses increase. R c decreases. So I0

increases. Thus, no load current increases,
