Question
A 300V, 60KW shunt generator has 1200 turns on each pole of its field wind ing. On no-
load a current of 3A in the field winding produce a terminal voltage of 300v, but on full
load the shunt current has to be increased to 4.5A for the same terminal voltage at the same
speed. Calculate the number of series turns per pole required for level compounding.
If the series coil were wound with 12 turns per pole and had a total resistance of 0.02,
What value of diverter resistance would be required to give level compounding?
