A 440 V, 74.6 kW, 50 Hz, 0.8 pf leading, 3-phase, A-connected synchronous motor has an armature resistance of 0.22 Q and a synchronous reactance of 3.0 . Its efficiency at rated conditions is 85%. Evaluate the performance of the motor at rated conditions by determining the following: Motor input power. Motor line current I, and phase current lA. The internal generated voltage EA. Sketch the phasor diagram. If the motor's flux is increased by 20%, calculate the new values of EA and IA, and the motor power factor. Sketch the new phasor diagram on the same diagram as in 1.1.3 (use dotted lines).

Question
A 440 V, 74.6 kW, 50 Hz, 0.8 pf leading, 3-phase, A-connected synchronous motor
has an armature resistance of 0.22 2 and a synchronous reactance of 3.0 Q2. Its
efficiency at rated conditions is 85%. Evaluate the performance of the motor at rated
conditions by determining the following:
Motor input power.
Motor line current I, and phase current IA.
The internal generated voltage EA. Sketch the phasor diagram.
If the motor's flux is increased by 20%, calculate the new values of EA and IA, and the motor
power factor. Sketch the new phasor diagram on the same diagram as in 1.1.3 (use dotted
lines).
