1. A pole, d.c.generator has a wave-wound armature with 792 conductors.

The flux per pole is


0.0121 weber. Determine the speed at which it should be run to generate 240 V on no load.

Eg = PΦNZ/60A

Given the values, wave-wound armature , A=2, Z=792, Φ=0.0121 weber. Eg=240 Volts

N, speed of armature = Eg*60*A / PΦZ

=(240*60*2) / (4*0.0121*792)

= 751.3 rpm.

2. Calculate the flux per pole in 4-pole generator 722 armature conductors generating 500 V
when running at 1000 r.p.m. when the armature is (a) lap connected and (ii) wave
connected.

Given the values are P=4, Z=722, Eg=500 V, N=1000 rpm

Φ = Eg*60*A / PNZ =( 500*60*4)/ (4*100*722) = 0.0415 weber.(lap connected)

Φ = Eg*60*A / PNZ =( 500*60*2)/ (4*100*722) = 0.02078 weber.(wave connected)


3. A shunt generator delivers 450 A at 230 V and the resistance of the shunt field and armature
are 50 ohm and 0.33 ohm respectively. Calculate the generated emf.

IF= V/ Rf = 230 / 50 = 4.6 Amps

Ia= 450 + 4.6 = 454.6 Amps

Eg= V+IaRa = 230 +( 454.6*0.03 ) = 243.638 Volts


4. A long shunt compound generator delivers a load current of 50 A at 500 V and has
armature, series and shunt filed resistance of 0.05 ohm, 0.03 ohm and 250 ohm respectively.

= 500 +( 52*0.05)+(52*0.03) +( 2*1)

= 500 + 2.6 + 1.56 + 2

Eg = 506.16 Volts
5. A short shunt compound generator delivers a load current of 30 A at 220 V, and has
armature , series field and shunt field resistances of 0.05 ohm, 0.3 ohm and 200 ohm
respectively. Calculate the induced emf and the armature current. Allow 1V per brush for
contact drop.
