Chapter 3, Problem 3.11P

In later years, motors improved and could be run directly from a 60 Hz power supply. As a result, 25 Hz power systems shrank and disappeared. However, there were many perfectly good working 25 Hz motors in factories around the country that owners were not ready to discard. To keep them running, some users created their own 25 Hz power in the plant using motor-generator sets. A motor-generator set consists of two machines connected on a common shaft, one acting as a motor and the other acting as a generator. If the two machines have different numbers of poles but exactly the same shaft speed, then the electrical frequency of the two machines will be different due to Equation (3-34). What combination of poles on the two machines could convert 60 Hz power to 25 Hz power? f s e = n s m P 120

I need a drawing on how to connect the function generator, oscilliscope, and both multimeters. It is hard for me to follow text instructions. The function generator has a postive,common and negative. The oscilliscope has chanell A and B, both channels have a postive and a negative. I know you can provide text instruction but a little sketch would be very helpful thank you.

Q1/ A three phase, 500 kVA, 6600 V, 50 Hz, 6 pole, star connected synchronous motor has synchronous impedance of J 70 ohm per phase at its normal rating, the motor is excited to give unity power factor at the input terminals. Find a) The rated current and power factor. b) The emf behind the synchronous impedance. c) The developed torque. d) The pull out torque. e) The increase in excitation which will just permit an increase of 30% of rated torque before pulling out of synchronism.
