A 4-pole shunt generator with wave-wound armature has 41 slots, each having 12 conductors. The armature resistance is 0.05 ohms and shunt field resistance s 200 ohms. The flux per pole is 25 mWb, if a load resistance of 10 ohms is connected across the armature terminals, calculate the voltage across the load when generator is driven at 1000 rpm
A long-shunt compound-wound generator gives 240 volts at F.L. output of 100A. The resistances of various windings of the machine are : armature (including brush contact) 0.1 Q, series field 0.02 Q, inter pole field 0.025 2, shunt field (including regulating 0.2 resistance) 100 2. The iron loss at F.L. is 1000 W; windage and friction losses total 500 W. Calculate F.L. efficiency of the machine.
There is an ambient temperature of 65°C with a temperature rating of the conductor as 75°C. What is the ambient temperature correction factor based on 86°F?
