SECTION-B
11. Draw the equivalent circuit and phasor diagram to find out the Emf generated in
synchronous generator for lagging power factor.
12. Explain the working principle of hysteresis motor.
13. Explain V curve and inverted V curve of synchronous motor with neat diagram.
14. A 3 phase induction motor runs at almost 1000 rpm at no load and 950 rpm at full load
when supplied with power from a 50 Hz 3 phase line
a) How many poles have the motor?
b) What is the % slip at full load?
c) What is the corresponding frequency of rotor voltages?
d) What is the corresponding speed of rotor field with respect to rotor?
e) What is the corresponding speed of the rotor with respect to stator?
15. Explain the synchronoscope method for synchronising two alternators. Also give the
conditions for synchronising the alternators.
SECTION-C
16. A cage induction motor when started by means of a star-delta starter takes 180% of full-
load line current and develops 35% of full-load torque at starting. Calculate the starting
torque and current in terms of full-load values, if an auto-transformer with 75% tapping
were employed.
17. The power input to a 6-pole, 50Hz. 3-phase induction motor is 700W at no-load and 10kW
at full load. The no load copper losses may be assumed negligible, while the full load stator
and rotor copper losses are 295 W and 310 W respectively. Find the full load speed, shaft
torque and efficiency of the motor assuming rotational and core losses to be equal.
18. Explain the armature reaction in synchronous generator for :
a) Unity power factor,
b) Lagging power factor,
c) Leading power factor.
