1. Sketch neat graphs to show the internal or open-circuit characteristics
of a separately-excited d.c. generator. Why is a field regulator necessary
with such a machine?
A four-pole d.c. generator gives 410 V on open circuit when driven
at 900 rev/min. Calculate the flux per pole if the wave-connected
armature winding has 39 slots with 16 conductors per slot. o219 wb
(U.E.I.)
2. A six-pole d.c. generator having a lap-connected armature winding is
required to give a terminal voltage of 240 V when supplying an arma-
ture current of 400 A. The armature has 84 slots and is driven at 700
rev/min. The resistance of the armature circuit is 0-03 2 and the useful
flux per pole is about 0-03 Wb. Calculate the number of conductors per
slot and the actual value of the useful flux per pole. 8, ord321 wb
3. Explain why the terminal voltage of a d.c. shunt-excited generator
falls as the current supplied by the machine is increased.
The resistance of the field circuit of a shunt-excited d.c. generator
is 200 2. When the output of the generator is 100 kW, the terminal
voltage is 500 V and the generated e.m.f. 525 V. Calculate: (a) the
armature resistance, and (b) the value of the generated e.m.f. when the
output is 60 kW, if the terminal voltage is then 520 V. 23 534.5
(E.M.E.U.)
4. A short-shunt compound generator has armature, shunt-field and
series-field resistances of 0-8 2, 45 2 and 0-6 2 respectively and sup-
plies a load of 5 kW at 250 V. Calculate the e.m.f. generated in the
armature. 282-66V
5. The following table gives the open-circuit voltages for different field
currents of a shunt generator driven at a constant speed:
Terminal voltage (V)
Field current (A)
120 240 334 400 444 470
0-5 1-0 1-5 2:0 2-5 3-0
Plot a graph showing the variation of generated e.m.f. with exciting
current and from this graph derive the value of the generated e.m.f.
When the shunt circuit has a resistance of (a) 160 2, (b) 210 2 and (C)
300 2, Also find the yalue of the critical resistance of the shunt circult.
