Question

A heater has 3 equal induction-free elements, each with a resistance of 10 ohms. The elements is delta connected and the oven is connected to a three-phase voltage of 230V / 50Hz

a) How much power is developed in the oven in total? The elements is now star connected instead and the oven is connected to 400V three-phase voltage.

b) How much power is being developed in the furnace now?

c) How large will the power be if the elements in the star connection are connected to 230V three-phase voltage?

d) How would you connect the elements if you want to use 230V single-phase voltage and want the same power as under question b)?

e) How much current does the oven draw now? Comment on the result
