In a transformer load test (Resistive and at a unity power factor), what should be the expected voltage regulation and primary power factor?
In case of resistive load and at a unity power factor, the load current is in phase with secondary voltage.
Therefore, voltage regulation =
(V0(NL) - V0(FL) )/V0(FL)
V0(NL) = Transformer no load output voltage
V0(FL) = Transformer full load output voltage
The no load output voltage is bigger than its full load output voltage, so the above equation is positive.
When the transformer has resistive load and at a unity power factor, the primary power factor = 0.95 lag.
Power factor is defined as the ratio of real power to apparent power. The power factor of the transformer is load dependent.

A single-phase transformer is rated at 10 kVA, 240/100 V. When the secondary terminals are open-circuited and the primary winding is supplied at normal voltage, the input current is 2.6 A at a power factor of 0.3 lag. When the secondary terminals are short-circuited, a voltage of 18 V applied to the primary causes the full-load current to flow in the secondary, the power input to the primary being 240 W. Calculate (a) the regulation (b) the efficiency of the...
