Distribution Transformer Calculations: Developed By: Mahmoud Salama

This document provides calculations for sizing a distribution transformer, sizing overcurrent protection, calculating short circuit current, and sizing natural ventilation openings for a transformer room. It calculates a 2500 KVA transformer rating to supply a 1800 kW load at 11/0.415 kV. The protective circuit breaker rating is calculated as 4000 A. The short circuit current is calculated as 49.69 KA. The natural ventilation openings are calculated to each be 4 square meters based on the transformer losses and room height.

01- (MV/LV) Transformer Sizing :-
Primary Rated Voltage (kV.) = 11.0 >>>>> COMMON STANDARD RATINGS FOR OIL TYPE TRANSFORMERS (KVA)
Secondary Rated Voltage (kV.) = 0.415 50 63 100 160 200
Max. Demand Load (kW) = 1800 300 500 800 1000 1500
PF. After Correction = 0.85 2000 2500 3000
Max. Apparent Power (KVA) = 2118
Trans. Type = oil . COMMON STANDARD RATINGS FOR DRY TYPE TRANSFORMERS (KVA)
Permissible loading percentage (%) = 80 100 160 200 250 315
Calculated Trans. Rating (KVA) = 2647.06 400 500 630 800 1000
The Nearest standard Trans. Rating (KVA) = 2500 XXX. 1250 1600 2000 2500 3150
Transformer Loading percentage (%) = 85 % * Consult your local area manufacturer for the available ratings.
FAILED RATING

02- Calculating Over current Protection device rating on the low voltage Side of the transformer :-
Transformer Design Current (Ib) = S(KVA) / (Sqrt (3) x kV) = 3478 Amp.
Nearest Nominal Current of the Protective Circuit Breaker (In) = 4000 Amp. .
SUCCEED RATING

03- Calculating the Prospective Short Circuit Current across the low voltage side of the transformer :-
Short Circuit Fault Current (Isc) = Trans. Design Current (Ib) x 100 / Usc%. Another Method
Isc = Vno load / {Sqrt (3) x Ztr.}
Trans. Rating = 2500 KVA

Usc % = 7 % Total losses (w) = 29623.0


Isc* = 49.69 KA Rtr (mille-ohm) = 0.8
Ztr (mille-ohm) = 4.8
* Calc. Short circuit at the low voltage terminals of a transformer is considered the highest prospective value of SC at low voltage side. Xtr (mille-ohm) = 4.8
Isc (KA)= 49.7

04- Calculating natural ventilation openings sizes required for the transformer room :-
Where :-
P= 29.623 KW P = the sum of the no-load losses and the full-load losses expressed in kW.
S= 0.18P/ Sqrt(H) = 4 m2 S = the sectional area of the incoming-air orifice (m 2).
Assume :- H= 2 m S’ = the sectional area of the outgoing-air orifice (m 2).
S' = 1.1 (S) = 4 m2 H = height (centre to centre) of the outgoing air orifice above the incoming-air orifice (m 2).
