Explanation of Solution

Given:

The name plate current of three-phase motor is 56 A.

Calculation:

A failure phase occurs when power is lost from a three-phase motor power supply line. The motor is still running, but it draws excessive current. This phenomenon is known as Single phasing. Single phasing causes a current increase of 173% in average of both phases which remain energized in a three-phase motor.

Calculate the current flowing in two remaining phases:

  Iavg=173%ofI=173100×I=1.73×56A=96.88A

Thus, the average amount of current flowing in two remaining phases is 96.88A_.

A start-up company wants to convert an ICE vehicle into an electric vehicle with the following specification. Power:  250 (HP) horsepower, (note: 1HP = 745 W) Range: 300-miles Fuel economy: 33.5 kilometers per gallon of gasoline. Efficiency of the ICE: 25% Energy Conversion: One gallon of gasoline at 100% efficiency is equal to 33.5 kWh/gallon).     a)Calculate the EV consumption rate as Wh/km and find the total energy of the battery pack in KWh to replace the internal combustion engine.                                                                                             b)Design an 8-module battery pack for this full electric vehicle without compromising its range and performance (power). Use commercially available cylindrical cells lithium cell with 20Ah capacity and 3.125 V average voltage. Cell dimensions are 5cm diameter and 10 cm height. The electric motor requires 250 V input that will be provided directly from the battery pack, Report the configuration of each module in…
