1. A 220V, 500A, 600rpm separately excited motor has armature and field 03 CO3
resistance of 0.02 Ω and 10 Ω respectively. The load torque is given by the
expression TL = 2000-2N, N-m, Where N is the speed in rpm. Speed below the
rated are obtained by armature voltage control and speed above the rated are
obtained by field control.
I. Calculate motor terminal voltage and armature current when the speed
is 450rpm.
II. Calculate field winding voltage and armature current when the speed is
750rpm.
2. The circuit shows an ideal diode connected to a pure inductor and is connected 02 CO2
to a purely sinusoidal 50Hz voltage source. Under ideal conditions Draw the
current waveform mentioning the x and y axis of the waveform.
3. A three phase diode bridge is used to provide rectified output from a 400V, 02 CO2
50 Hz, 33- phase supply to a R − L load with 10Ω resistance
and 300 mH inductance.
Determine the
(a)DC level of the output voltage
(b) RMS value of the diode current
5. A 3-phase, 6 pole induction motor is rated 400Hz, 150V, 10hp, 3% slip at rated 04 CO4
power output. The windage and friction loss is 200W at rated speed. With the
motor operating at rated voltage, frequency, slip, and output power. Determine:
a) Rotor speed.
d) Output torque.
If the rotor winding is open circuited and the system is made to run at rotational
speed fr with the help of prime-mover in anti-clockwise direction, then the
frequency of voltage across slip rings is f1 and frequency of voltage across
commutator brushes is f2. Find the values of f1 and f2 .
7. Discuss the sign conventions and operations of 4 Quandrants in electric drives. 04 CO1
If a motor is used to drive a hoist and is having characteristics in each quadrants
as follows:
Quadrant I & II: T = 200-0.2*N, Nm
Quadrant III & IV: T= -200-0.2*N, Nm , where N is the speed in RPM.
When hoist is loaded, the net load toque is 100Nm and when it is unloaded, net
load torque is -80Nm.
Calculate the equilibrium speeds in rps for all four quadrants.
