• The assignment has to be hand written with the name and registration number on
each page. The scanned copy as a single PDF has to be submitted online in the Google
Classroom.
1. With neat circuit diagrams and waveforms, explain the operation of a three-phase full
controlled rectifier fed separately excited dc motor. Also, derive the expressions for
average output voltage and speed-torque relation.
2. With neat circuit diagrams and waveforms, explain the operation of a three-phase half
controlled rectifier fed separately excited dc motor. Also, derive the expressions for
average output voltage and speed-torque relation.
3. Derive a generalized expression for determining the value of r1 , r2 .... rm in the armature
resistance-based starting setup resulting in the shown evolution of armature current and
speed.
4. A 10 kW, 220 V, 1490 rpm, separately excited dc motor has Ra = 0.3Ω, a brush drop of
2 V, and a rated current of 50 A. Design a starter system with three resistors yielding
in Iamax = 100 A and Iamin = 60 A.
