QUESTION 1 Consider a 20 hp, 420 V (L-N), 3 phase, 50 Hz, 6 pole cage rotor induction motor. Assume a specific magnetic loading of 0.47 Tesla, and a specific electric loading of 24,500 amp.-conductors/m, a full load efficiency of 0.86, a full load power factor of 0.84, and a winding factor of 0.955. Assume a stacking factor of 0.9 for the laminations. Carry out the following initial design steps:
(a)

Calculate the D2L product for this machine. [5]

(b)

Assume that a pole is roughly square in shape. Calculate the values of D and L. [5]

(c)

Calculate the maximum value of the flux per pole, and the number of turns needed per phase to generate a no-load e.m.f. of 420 volts (L-N) per phase. [5] What would be the largest suitable number of stator slots for a three phase winding that could be used for this machine without exceeding a maximum or peak value for the flux density of 1.5 Tesla in the stator teeth?. Use teeth that have parallel sides. Draw a quarter segment of the cross section of the stator to indicate all dimensions. [5] What should be the thickness of the back iron behind the stator teeth so that the peak value of flux density in this area does not exceed 2 Tesla? Neglect the effect of stacking factor. [5]

QUESTION 2

A synchronous machine is to be represented in the dq reference frame to analyze a symmetrical three phase short circuit. No change in speed; no damper windings present; armature winding resistance can be neglected (but not field winding resistance); the pd and pq terms can be neglected. Write down the dq and f coil equations for the machine and then derive (not simply give the final answer but clearly show your math) an equation for the d-axis current after the fault has occurred. The class handout has some math missing in between steps which you have to now insert and show in detail. Copying directly from the handout is not sufficient. [25]
