Complete Question

The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image

a

The High Voltage Rating for Auto - Transformer is 86kV

The  Low Voltage Rating for Auto - Transformer is 78kV

The MVA rating is 268.75

b

The efficiency is 99.4%

Explanation:

From the question  we are given are given that

 The transformer has Mega Volt Amp rating of 25MVA

                          The frequency is 60-Hz

                           Voltage rating 8.0kV : 78kV

   The short circuit test gives : 453kV,321A,77.5kW

   The open circuit test gives : 8.0kV, 39.6A, 86.2kW

This can be represented on a diagram shown on the second uploaded image

From this diagram we can deduce that the The High Voltage Rating for Auto - Transformer is 86kV and the  Low Voltage Rating for Auto - Transformer is 78kV

 Now to obtain the current flowing through the 8kV  coil in the Auto-transformer we have

The volt will cancel each other

 Now to obtain the required MVA rating we would multiply the value of Power obtained during the open circuit test by the value of the current calculated.we are making use of the power obtain during open circuit testing because the transformer at this point is not under any load.

We need to understand that Iron losses is due to open circuit test which has power = 86.2kW

While copper loss is due to short circuit test which has power = 77.5kW

The the current flowing through the secondary coil as shown in the circuit diagram can be obtained as

Now the efficiency can be obtained as thus

             =99.941%
