Question

A Y-connected, 3-phase, 50 Hz, 6-pole, slip ring induction motor has following data:

Rating: 400 V, 50kW, 960rpm

Rs=0.08 Ω,   Rr'=0.1 Ω,   Xs=Xr'=0.3 

Moment of inertia=10Kg·m2    

Motor is to be stopped from its no load speed under reverse voltage braking operation.

  1. Find the value of external resistance to be inserted in rotor circuit so that the braking process will take minimum time. Also calculate braking time.
  2. With the rotor resistance as calculated in (i) find energy loss in the motor..
