ASSIGNMENT 1 SCHOOL OF ELECTRICAL AND ELECTRONICS ENGINEERING

COURSE TITLE: INDUCTION AND SYNCHRONOUS MACHINES MAX.MARKS:20 DATE OF ALLOTMENT: 31/08/2012 . 1) 2) 3) 4) Why slip ring Induction Motors are applied where heavy loads are required? Explain the torque-slip curve. Define pull out torque, locked rotor torque. Two squirrel cage induction motors A and C are identical in all respects except that rotor of A is made of aluminium having a resistivity of 310-8 ohm-m and that of motor C is made of copper having a resistivity of 2 10 -8 ohm-m. The starting torque of motor A is 120 Nm. Predict the starting torque of motor C. 5) A 4 pole, 50 hz, 3 phase induction motor has an efficiency of 85 % for useful output power at the shaft of 17 KW. For this load the total stator losses are 900 W and the windage and friction losses are 1100 W. calculate the slip, torque developed by the rotor and torque available at the rotor shaft. 6) When 3 phase supply is given to the stator of a 3 phase wound induction motor, a revolving field is set. When the same supply is given to a 3 phase transformer no revolving field is set up there, why? 7) A squirrel cage induction motor has ____ slip rings.
