The machine is now connected as a shunt generator with a total field resistance of 200 2 and driven at
1000 rpm. Estimate graphically: (i) the voltage to which the generator will build up at no load. (ii) the
armature, field and load currents when the teminal voltage is found to be 150 V. Neglect the effect of
armature reaction and brush drop and assume armature resistance Ra to be 0.8 N. (iii) Finally estimate
the steady state armature current when the machine terminals are shorted.
