A 480V, 3-phase, 50Hz 6-pole Induction motor with a rated power of 10KVA.
(i) Calculate the synchronous speed in rad/sec (ws)
(ii) Determine the rotor speed in rpm, if the % slip is 2.5%
The reason why the starting torque of a series motor is higher than a shunt motor is
because the series motor has
O more current flowing through its armature
O a stronger net magnetic field around both coils during the inrush of stator current
