Question

A 500 V, 250 kW, long shunt compound generator induces an e.m.f. of 480 V when
running at 1000 r.p.m. no load. On full load the spped of the machine drops to 975
r.p.m. the flux increases by 15% and the terminal voltage rises to 500 V. If the
series and shunt field resistances are 0.02 ohm and 100 ohms respectively,
calculate the armature resistance. Assume a voltage drop of 1V per brush.[Ans.
