Conventional electric drive was introduced in 1891 by Hary Ward Leonard (1861-1915), an electrical engineer based in Cincinnati to drive passenger lift of large mines in the US. It has been the major drive for DC motor application throughout the century. However, modem electric drive has replaced the usage of the Ward-Leonard system in many industrial applications nowadays. (a) A 100hp. 250V, 1200 pm separately excited DC motor with amature resistance of 0.032 and a field resistance of 41.572 initially runs with Va=250V, L=120V and rotates at 1103 rpm while supplying a constant torque load. If the motor is required to slow down to 879 rpm with the same load, what would be the firing angle at the 3-phase 240VAC RMS firing circuit connected to the amature circuit of the DC motor?
