Describe the principle of operation of a lin-
ear induction motor.
Name the principal components of an in-
duction motor.
Explain how a revolving field is set up in a
3-phase induction motor.
Answer all the questions
(a) How much power is the wind farm generating? (b) How much power is the solar farm generating? (c) Find the power delivered to the AC motor. (d) If the AC motor requires at least 45 kW of power, is the system able to provide that power? If not, how many additional series PV modules should be added to each string (we want to keep the same number of modules in each string)? If so, how many modules can be removed from each string while still meeting the requirements?

- An open-circuit voltage of 240 V appears across the slip-rings of a wound-rotor in- duction motor when the rotor is locked. The stator has 6 poles and is excited by a 60 Hz source. If the rotor is driven by a variable-speed dc motor, calculate the open-circuit voltage and frequency across the slip-rings if the dc motor turns a. At 600 r/min, in the same direction as the rotating field b. At 900 r/min, in the same direction as the rotating field c. At 3600 r/min, opposite to the rotating fieldarrow_forwardIf we double the number of poles on the stator of an induction motor, will its syn- chronous speed also double?

Identify the configuration that uses the minimum number of panels to provide enough power to Bus 1. You can assume that the inverter converts the power at 95% efficiency and requires V DC input to generate the same VRMS AC output.arrow_forwardWhat happens to the rotor speed and rotor current when the mechanical load on an in- duction motor increases? Would you recommend using a 50 hp in- duction motor to drive a 10 hp load? Explain. Give two advantages of a wound-rotor mo- tor over a squirrel-cage motor. Both the voltage and frequency induced in the rotor of an induction motor decrease as the rotor speeds up. Explain.arrow_forward
