what is the best suitable motor for below application? In a belt conveyor system used to transport bulk solids, the belt speed is required to be maintained constant at the set speed all the time irrespective of the bulk solids content on the belt. Hence, the electric motor used in this system should be able to operate more or less at a constant speed in a wide range of different torque values.
Manual Control: Design a dc motor circuit to drive an assembly line consisting of a conveyor belt moving horizontally. The load on the belt varies depending on the number of goods being moved. The load torque seen by the motor varies from a maximum of 20 Nm to a minimum of 5 Nm. At all loading conditions, the speed of the motor must be maintained constant and equal to 150 rpm. a. To achieve the required operation, the armature voltage of the motor is adjusted by a single-phase, full-wave, ac/dc converter. The input voltage and frequency to the converter are 240 V (rms) and 50 Hz. (Hint: Motor type, Motor rating, α range, Supply voltage, and frequency...etc) Automatic Control: Modify the design to automatically adjust the voltage to maintain the speed equal to 200 rpm within the specified torque range. (Hint: control variable, controller type, connection, controller weights..etc)
An induction motor of 30 HP, 220 V, 450% of the rated current with therated voltage and delivers during the starting period, with 130 % of the normal torque. The full load efficiency and full load power factor of the motor is 80 and 70 percent, respectively. If an autotransformer is used as a starting unit and the starting torque of the load is only 50 % of the rated torque of the motor, Determine the starting voltage and the starting current of the line.
3. A dc shunt motor operating unloaded at a terminal voltage of 125V at a speed of 1420 rpm. When themotor is operated unloaded at the same terminal voltage but with an additional resistance of 8Ω in serieswith the shunt field, the motor speed is 1560rpm. (Ignore armature reaction and magnetic saturation)a) Calculate the resistance of the shunt field.b) Calculate the motor speed if the series resistance is increased from 8Ω to20Ω. c) With the field resistance at its original value and no series resistance, calculate the motor speed if it isoperated loaded at a terminal voltage of 90 V and a terminal current of 100A.
