Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark
To determine

State the characteristics of wound rotor motors that led to the wide use for industrial applications.

Answer to Problem 1SQ

The speed or torque control characteristics of wound rotor motors are led to the wide use for industrial applications.

Explanation of Solution

The wound rotor motor is the first AC motor provided with the speed control characteristics. The wound rotor motor is widely used in industrial power applications since it provides the wide range of speed control. In addition, wound rotor motor has features of high-starting torque and low-starting current. These features are highly necessary to provide the motor better operating characteristics to use for applications where a large motor is required or where the motor must start with load connection.

Conclusion:

Thus, the speed or torque control characteristics of wound rotor motors are led to the wide use for industrial applications.

Design a battery pack for an electric bike that consumes in average 10Wh/mile and drive 30 miles per charge. The battery state of charge window is 80%. Design the battery by using new commercial cylindrical cells with 20mm diameter and 80mm height. The battery is constructed based on graphite anode C6 and cathode Li(Ni0.8Co0.15Al0,05)O2 that provides 3.75V at the cell level and 10Ah capacity. Density of anode is 2.2 g/cm3 and density of cathode is 4.5 g/cm3. Report on the battery pack configuration if the required battery pack voltage is 75 volts.                 If the thickness of anode and cathode is limited to 130 microns (130 x 10-4 cm) calculate the total electrode surface area in each cell. Assume the porosity of electrodes are 30%. Calculate the weight of active materials (anode and cathode) in grams and the total current collector’s and electrolyte membrane areas in (cm2).
