Question 1
Assume a four pole, lap wound, long shunt compound (cumulative) d.c. generator with an armature
resistance of 0.020, field resistance of 0.04 and a shunt resistance of 10Q. The armature has 120
conductors in the slots and runs at 1000rpm. The generator supplies three loads connected as follows:
i.
A7.2kW motor and a 2.4kW geyser connected in parallel and a
a 1.8kW lighting load in series with the parallel combination in (i) above
the voltage across the geyser is measured to be 240V
ii.
Neglect friction, rotational losses and assume a brush drop of 1.8V then:
a. calculate the armature induced voltage
b. calculate the flux per pole
c. calculate the efficiency of the machine
