What is the definition of slip speed and slip? Write all the power equations involved in an induction motor and sketch the power flow diagram. Classify the two type of rotor of an induction motor? Group EPE491OCT2009 of students is conducting an experiment on the following three-phase induction motor: A three-phase, 125 hp 50 Hz 440 V, star connected, eight-pole induction motor has electric circuit parameters on a per phase basis referred to the stator as follows: R1 = 0.06 X1 = X 2 ' = 0.224 R2 ' = 0.05 Rc = infinity Xm =7.6

The friction loss including the stray loss is 3.4 kW. When the motor is working at a slip of 3.0%, evaluate the followings:i) ii) iii) iv) The input line current. The power factor. The stator copper loss. Output horse power and overall efficiency of motor. (15 marks) QUESTION 2 a) b) Draw the phasor diagram for synchronous generator at the leading, lagging and unity power factor. A 2300 V, 100 hp, 50 Hz, eight pole, star connected synchronous motor has a rated of 0.85 power factor leading. At full load the efficiency is 85%. The armature resistance is 1.1 /phase and the synchronous reactance is 20 /phase. Find the following quantities for this machine when it is operating at full load. a) b) c) d) e) f) Output torque Input power Armature current Generated voltage Power converted Rotational losses
