10. A short-shunt compound d.c. Generator supplies a current of 100 A at a voltage of 220 V. If the resistance of the shunt field is 50 £2, of the series field 0.025 £2, of the armature 0.05 2, the total brush drop is 2 V and the iron and friction losses amount to 1 kW, find (a) the generated e.m.f. (b) the copper losses (c) the output power of the prime-mover driving the gen- erator and (d) the generator efficiency. [(a) 229.7 V (b) 1.995 kW (c) 24.99 kW (d) 88%]
Synchronous Generator
In comparison to an asynchronous generator, it is a machine where the rotor speed is equal to the rotating magnetic field produced by the stator, i.e., mechanical speed is equal to the electrical speed, thus called synchronous, and not asynchronous.
Salient Pole Rotor
Salient pole rotor includes a large number of exposed poles mounted on a magnetic wheel. The construction of a bright pole is as shown in the image on the left. The proposed poles are made of metal laminations. The rotor winding is provided on these poles and is supported by pole shoes.
Solve question no.10 and show a clear and readable solution.
Note: The answer is given on the bottom right side of the image, just show the solution on how to get it.
Thanks!!!
