SECTION-B
2.
A 220 V DC series motor is running at a speed of 800 rpm and draw 100A. Calculate at
what speed motor will run when developing the half of torque. Total resistance of
armature and field is 0.1 .Assume that magnetic circuit is unsaturated.
3.
What are the necessary conditions for voltage build- up of DC shunt generator? Draw the
characteristic curves for magnetization, internal and external characteristics for DC series
and shunt generators.
4.
With the help of neat sketches, discuss armature reaction in DC machines.
5.
Why the Hopkinson's test is performed on two similar DC shunt motors? Support your
answer with the help of circuit diagram.
6.
A 120 V DC shunt motor having an armature circuit resistance of 0.1 and field circuit
resistance of 60, draws a line current of 40 A at full load. The brush voltage drop is 2V
and rated full load speed is 2000 rpm. Calculate :
a) speed at half load
b) at 150% of full load
SECTION-C
7.
a) Draw the well-labeled Scott connection of transformers. Explain, how two three-
phase transformers can be used to convert a three-phase supply to a two-phase one? If
the load is balanced on one side, show that it will be balanced on the other side.
b) A 250kVA, 2.2kV/440V, 50Hz, 2-winding transformer is to be used as an auto-
transformer to step-up the voltage of 2200V to 2640V. The transformer has an
efficiency of 97% at 0.8 power factor lagging, impedance of 4% and regulation of
3%. Determine : (i) voltage and current ratings of each side, (ii) kVA rating, (iii)
efficiency at 0.95 power factor lagging, (iv) regulation, and (v) kVA transformed and
kVA conducted at full load while it is used as an auto-transformer.
8.
A three phase transformer is used to step down the voltage revel of a three phase, 11
kV line. Per phase turns ratio is 12. For a primary line current of 20A, compute the
secondary line voltage, line current and output kVA for (i) star-delta (ii) delta- star.
Also draw phasor diagrams also.
9.
With the help of neat sketches, discuss :
a) Three winding transformer's equivalent circuit
b) Open circuit and short circuit test on single phase transformer
