MGVCL Exam Paper (30-07-2021 Shift 2) A 3-phase motor load has a p.f. of 0.397 lagging. The two wattmeter method used to measure power show the input as 30 kW. Find the reading on each wattmeter. W1 = 10 kW and W2 = 20 kW W1 = -5 kW and W2 = 35 kW W1 = 5 kW and W2 = 25 kW W1 = -10 kW and W2 = 40 kW W1 = 10 kW and W2 = 20 kW W1 = -5 kW and W2 = 35 kW W1 = 5 kW and W2 = 25 kW W1 = -10 kW and W2 = 40 kW ANSWER EXPLANATION DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP Here,Cosφ = 0.397P = 30 kW = √3*V_L*I_L*cosφV_L*I_L = 30kW/(√3*0.397) = 43628.48 VAReadings of wattmeter W1 = V_L*I_L*cos(30+φ)Readings of wattmeter W2 = V_L*I_L*cos(30-φ)

MGVCL Exam Paper (30-07-2021 Shift 2) A single phase 240 V, 1 kW heater is connected across single phase 240 V, 50 Hz supply through an SCR. For firing angle delay of 90˚, calculate the power absorbed in the heater element. 225 W 250 W 275 W 300 W 225 W 250 W 275 W 300 W ANSWER EXPLANATION DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP Resistance of heater, R = V²/PR = 57.6 ohmRMS value of voltage through controlled SCR = (Vm/2π)*(1 + cosα)= 120 VPower absorb by heater = Vrms²/R= 120²/57.6= 250 W
