Proximity effectCorona effectThomson effectSkin effect 16➤ Which of the following statements about magnetostriction and its ill effects is INCORRECT? Using a low value of flux density core is one of the reasons for humming sound in a transformer.This effect causes losses which produce heat in ferromagnetic coresThe applied magnetic field changes the magnetostrictive strain until reaching its saturation valueThe transformer buzzing noise is caused by a phenomenon of magnetostriction.17➤ The thickness of lamination (which reduces eddy current loss) in electrical machine varies from: (Select the closest range) 0.5 to 5 mm0.1 to 2 mm0.5 to 2 mm 0.1 to 1 mm18➤ At what value of load angle (δ) does the maximum power transfer in power system? δ = 90°δ < 90° δ = 180° δ > 90°19➤ Which of the following statements about the nature of speed control required by different industrial drives is INCORRECT? In some cases, speed is needed for adjusting the work on a driven machine only for a few revolutions per minute; such a speed is known as creeping speed.Some drives require only two or three fixed speeds over a region; such drives are called multi-speed drivesSome drives require continuously variable speed over the range from zero to full speed; such drives are called variable speed drives.Some drives require only one fixed speed over a region; such drives are called mono-speed drives20➤ Which of the following is NOT the advantage of bundled conductors?
