Question 1

A 200 V d.c. series motor develops its rated output at 1500 rpm while taking 20 A. Armature and series field resistances are 0.6 Ω and 0.4 Ω respectively. To obtain rated torque at 1000 rpm, external resistance (in Ω) must be added is

Question 2

In a salient pole synchronous motor, the developed reluctance torque attains the maximum value when the load angle in electrical degree is

Question 3

Two similar 200 kVA, single phase transformer gave the following results when tested by back to back method mains wattmeter, W1 = 4 KW primary series circuit wattmeter, W2 = 6 KW (at full load current). Calculate the efficiency of each transformer at 80% of full load and 0.8 p.f. lagging load.

Question 4

A single-phase 100 kVA, 1000 V/100 V, 50 Hz transformer has a voltage drop of 5% across its series impedance at full load. Of this, 3% is due to resistance. The percentage regulation of the transformer at full load with 0.8 lagging power factor is

Question 5

A 3-phase, 2-pole, 50 Hz, synchronous generator has a rating of 250 MVA, 0.8 pf lagging. The kinetic energy of the machine at synchronous speed is 1000 MJ. The machine is running steadily at synchronous speed and delivering 60 MW power at a power angle of 10 electrical degrees. If the load is suddenly removed, assuming the acceleration is constant for 10 cycles, the value of the power angle after 5 cycles is ________ electrical degrees.

Question 6

A 25 kVA, 400 V, ∆- connected, 3-phase, cylindrical rotor synchronous generator requires a field current of 5 A to maintain the rated armature current under short-circuit condition. For the same field current, the open-circuit voltage is 360 V. Neglecting the armature resistance and magnetic saturation, its voltage regulation (in % with respect to terminal voltage), when the generator delivers the rated load at 0.8 pf leading, at rated terminal voltage is _________.
