I want to know what is the practical significance of Knee point voltage in CT design and function besides that 10% increase in KPV flux increases by 50%.

The knee point of a transformer or a current transformer is the voltage value from which when an increase of 10% to the voltage, an increase of 50% to the saturation curve occurs.

A simple graphic way to find this value is by means of homotety, i.e., you draw a right triangle with one side 10 and the other 50, and displace until the hypotenus reaches the tangen to the no load saturation curve.
