Question 5
A 460V, 1250rpm, 30hp DC shunt motor, operating at rated conditions is to be
dynamically braked by disconnecting the armature from the supply and connecting it
across a 1.15 Q braking resistor. The motor has negligible armature resistance.
Draw a complete schematic of the motor in the braking state. Label all components and show all
relevant given quantities.
Determine the following:
(i)
The value (exact) of armature braking current
(ii)
The initial braking torque.
(ii)
The braking power and torque when the motor speed is 250rpm.
(iv)
The approximate time for the motor to come to a stop (from 1250 rpm) if the moment
of inertia of the motor and connected loads is 125 kgm2.
(v)
The approximate time for the motor to come to a stop if it was plugged instead of
dynamically braked. Assume a 230V supply and the same value of brake resistance
and moment of inertia of the motor and connected loads.
