of 20 kW and 250 V with the armature and field resistances of 0.1Ω and 125Ω,
respectively. With the aid of equivalent circuit, calculate the total armature
power developed and armature power loss when it is operated
Q2 ) Assume that a direct current (DC) generator with 6-pole consists of 600
conductors on its armature with the flux per pole of 0.02 Wb. Determine the
rotational speeds (in rad/s) required by the (i) lap-wound and (ii) wave-wound
DC generator in order to produce an electromotive force (emf) of 300 V.
6) A 240 V shunt motor runs at a speed (N1) 850 rev. per min. when the armature current
IA1= 70 A. The armature resistance RA = 0.1Ω. A resistance R is placed in series with
the armature to reduce the speed to N2 = 650 rev. per min. The armature current is
then
IA2 = 50 A. Calculate:
