  • Question 1
    1 / -0
    A synchronous motor with negligible armature resistance runs at a load angle of 20° at the rated frequency. If supply frequency is increased by 10%, keeping the other parameters constant, the new load angle will be
    Solution

    Power delivered by the synchronous motor

    \( \Rightarrow P = \frac{{EV}}{{{X_s}}}\sin \delta \)

    From data, other parameters such as P, E and V are constant.

    \(\begin{array}{l} \Rightarrow {X_s} \propto \sin \delta \\ \Rightarrow f \propto \sin \delta \\ \Rightarrow \frac{{{f_2}}}{{{f_1}}} = \frac{{\sin {\delta _2}}}{{\sin {\delta _1}}}\\ \Rightarrow \sin {\delta _2} = \sin 20^\circ \times \frac{{110}}{{100}}\\ \Rightarrow {\delta _2} = 22.09^\circ \end{array}\)

  • Question 2
    1 / -0

    Find the output torque(in N-M) of the 3ϕ synchronous motor has a 480 V, 60 Hz, 4 poles drawing 40 A of current at full load, unity power factor.

    Assuming the motor is lossless.

    Solution

    The input power

    \({P_m} = \sqrt 3 \;{V_L}{I_L}\cos \theta = \sqrt 3 \times 480 \times 40 = 33.26\;kW\)

    ∴ Pout = Pin = 33.26 kW

    \(\begin{array}{l} {N_m} = \frac{{120\;F}}{P} = \frac{{120 \times 60}}{4} = 1800\;rpm\\ T = \frac{{{P_{out}}}}{{{N_m} \times \frac{{2\pi }}{{60}}}} = \frac{{33.26}}{{1800 \times \frac{{2\pi }}{{60}}}} = 176.54\;N - M \end{array}\)

  • Question 3
    1 / -0
    A 400 V, 3-phase star-connected synchronous motor has xd = 8 ohm and xq = 6 ohms. It is running on infinite bus. If its field current is reduced to zero, the maximum load that the synchronous motor can carry is ___________ (in kW)
    Solution

    Power drawn by the synchronous motor per phase, P is

    \(P=\frac{EV}{{{x}_{d}}}\sin \delta +\frac{{{V}^{2}}}{2}\left( \frac{1}{{{x}_{q}}}-\frac{1}{{{x}_{d}}} \right)\sin 2\delta \) 

    If field current is reduced to zero, E = 0.

    \(\Rightarrow P=\frac{{{V}^{2}}}{2}\left( \frac{1}{{{x}_{q}}}-\frac{1}{{{x}_{d}}} \right)\sin 2\delta\) 

    It is maximum at δ = 45°

    Maximum load that the synchronous motor can carry.

    \(\Rightarrow {{P}_{max}}=\frac{{{V}^{2}}}{2}\left( \frac{1}{{{x}_{q}}}-\frac{1}{{{x}_{d}}} \right)\) 

    \(=\frac{1}{2}\times {{\left( \frac{400}{\sqrt{3}} \right)}^{2}}\times \left( \frac{1}{6}-\frac{1}{8} \right)\) 

    = 1111.11 W = 1.11 kW

    For all three phases, Pmax = 3.33 kW
  • Question 4
    1 / -0
    A 3-phase, 460 V, 6-pole, 60 Hz cylindrical rotor synchronous motor has a synchronous reactance of 2.5 Ω and negligible armature resistance. The load torque, proportional to the square of the speed, is 398 N.m at 1200 rpm. Unity power factor is maintained by excitation control. Keeping the v/f constant, the frequency is reduced to 36 Hz. The torque angle δ is
    Solution

    Concept:

    T ∝ sinδ

    \(P = \frac{{{V_s}{V_R}}}{X}sin\delta\)

    \(N = \frac{{120f}}{P}\)

    Calculation:

    Given that N1 = 1200 rpm

    f1 = 60 Hz

    T1 = 398 N-m

    At f2 = 36 Hz

    \({N_2} = \frac{{120f}}{P} = \frac{{120 \times 36}}{6} = 720\;rpm\)

    T ∝ N2

    \(\frac{{{T_1}}}{{{T_2}}} = {\left( {\frac{{{N_1}}}{{{N_2}}}} \right)^2}\)

    \(\Rightarrow \frac{{398}}{{{T_2}}} = {\left( {\frac{{1200}}{{720}}} \right)^2}\)

    ⇒ T2 = 143.28 N-m

    Now,

    \({P_1} = \frac{{2\pi {N_1}}}{{60}} \times {T_1} = 50.014\;KW\)

    \({P_1} = \frac{{{V_S}{V_R}}}{X}sin{\delta _1} = \frac{{{V^2}}}{X}sin{\delta _1}\)

    \(\Rightarrow sin{\delta _1} = \frac{{2.5 \times 50.014 \times {{10}^3}}}{{{{460}^2}}}\)

    ⇒ sinδ1 = 0.59

    \(\frac{{{T_1}}}{{{T_2}}} = \frac{{sin{\delta _1}\;}}{{sin{\delta _2}}}\)

    \(\Rightarrow \frac{{398}}{{143.28}} = \frac{{0.59}}{{sin{\delta _2}}}\)

    ⇒ sinδ2 = 0.2127

    ⇒ δ2 = 12.5°

  • Question 5
    1 / -0
    A three-phase synchronous motor has 80% of synchronous reactance and negligible resistance. When connected to bus bars at rated voltage and the excitation adjusted for an emf of 120%, the machine draws an input kVA of 100%. The mechanical power developed by the motor, by neglecting all the losses is
    Solution

    Synchronous reactance, (Xs) = 0.8 pu

    Vt = 1.0 pu, Ra = 0, Ef = 1.2 pu

    As Ef > Vt synchronous motor is working under leading power factor.

    \({E_f} = \sqrt {{{\left( {{V_t}\cos \theta + {I_a}{R_a}} \right)}^2} + {{\left( {{V_t}\sin \theta - {I_a}{X_s}} \right)}^2}} \)

    \(\Rightarrow 1.2 = \sqrt {{{\cos }^2}\theta + {{\left( {\sin \theta - 0.8} \right)}^2}}\)

    1.44 = cos2 θ + sin2 θ + 1.64 – 1.6 sin θ

    sin θ = 0.125

    cos θ = 0.9922 leading

    Mechanical power developed by the motor = Vt Ia cos θ

    = 1 × 1 × 0.9922 = 0.9922 pu

  • Question 6
    1 / -0
    A 500 V, three phase mesh connected synchronous motor runs at rated voltage and with an excitation emf of 600 V. Its synchronous impedance per phase is 0.4 + j3 Ω. The line current for maximum power input is _______ 
    Solution

    At maximum power input,

    \({I_a}{Z_s} = \sqrt {\left[ {E_f^2 + V_t^2 - 2{E_f}{V_t}\cos \left( \delta \right)} \right]} \)

    δ = θz + 2 αz

    Given that, Vt = 500, Ef = 600 V

    Zs = 0.4 + j 3 Ω = 3.026 ∠82.4°

    θz = 82.4°

    αz = 90 - θz = 7.6°

    δ = 82.4 + 2(7.6) = 97.6°

    \({I_a}\left( {3.020} \right) = \sqrt {{{\left( {500} \right)}^2} + {{\left( {600} \right)}^2} - 2\left( {500} \right)\left( {600} \right)\cos \left( {97.6^\circ } \right)} \)

    Ia = 274.38

    Line current \(= 274.38 \times \sqrt 3 = 475.24\;A\)

  • Question 7
    1 / -0
    A 6.6 kV, Y-connected, 3-phase synchronous motor operates at constant voltage and excitation. Its synchronous impedance is 2 + j20 Ω/phase. The motor operates at 0.8 leading power factor while drawing 800 kW from the mains. If the motor is loaded to draw increased power of 1200 kW, the power factor will be _____
    Solution

    \({V_t} = \frac{{6.6}}{{\sqrt 3 }} = 3.81\;kV\)

    Ia = Power factor = 0.8 lead

    a = Ia ∠36.9°

    \({I_a} = \frac{{800}}{{\sqrt 3 \times 6.6 \times 0.8}} = 87.47\;A\)

     Z̅s = 2 + j 20 = 20.1 ∠84.3° Ω

    Ef = 3.81 – 20.1 ∠84.3 × 0.0875 ∠36.9

    = 4.724 – j 1.504

    Ef = 4.96 kV (phase)

    Power input increases to 1200 kW and no change in excitation

    \({P_e} = 3\;\left[ {\frac{{V_t^2}}{{{Z_z}}}\cos \theta - \frac{{{V_t}{E_f}}}{{{Z_s}}}\cos \left( {\delta + \theta } \right)} \right]\)

    \(\Rightarrow \frac{{1200}}{{1000 \times 3}} = \frac{{{{\left( {3.81} \right)}^2} \times 0.1}}{{20.1}} - \frac{{3.81 \times 4.96}}{{20.1}}\cos \left( {\delta + 84.3^\circ } \right)\)

    δ = 26.1°

    \({I_a} = \frac{{3.81 - 4.96\angle - 26.1}}{{20.1\;\angle 84.3}} = 113\;\angle 22.1^\circ \)

    Power factor = cos 22.1 = 0.9265 Leading.
