Question
Chapter 39, Problem 1SQ
To determine
Explain the reason why both rotor and stator should possess equal number of poles.
Expert Solution & Answer

Answer to Problem 1SQ
The reason why both rotor and stator should possess equal number of poles is to synchronize with each other.
Explanation of Solution
An independent field is established around the rotor, which is energized by a direct current through slip rings mounted on the shaft. The rotor has the same number of coils as the stator, so that each and every rotor pole (north and south) can have an alternative stator poles (north and south), and synchronize with each other. Therefore, the motor’s stator and rotor are in relative speed due to magnetism.
Conclusion:
Thus, the reason why both rotor and stator should possess equal number of poles is to synchronize each other.

- B:A 20 MVA transformer which may be called upon to operate at 30% overload, feeds 11 KV busbars through a circuit breaker: other circuit breakers supply outgoing feeders. The transformer circuit breaker is equipped with 1000/5 A CTS and the feeder circuit breakers with 400/5 A CTS and all sets of CTs feed induction type over current relays. The relays on the feeder circuits breakers have a 125% plug setting, and 0.3 time setting. If 3 ph fault current of 5000 A flows from the transformer to one of the feeders, find the operating time of the feeder relay, the minimum plug setting of the transformer relay and its time setting assuming a discrimination time margin of 0.5 sec.

The metal regions are shaded in grey and are made of copper. The solid central wire has radius a = 5mm, the outer tube inner radius b = 20mm and thickness t = 5mm. The dielectric spacer is Teflon, of relative permittivity &r = 2.1 and breakdown strength 350kV/cm. A potential difference of 1kV is applied across the conductors, with centre conductor positive and outer conductor earthed. Before undertaking any COMSOL simulations we'll first perform some theoretical analysis of Cable A based on the EN2076 lectures, to make sense of the simulations. Calculate the radial electric field of cable A at radial positions r b. Also calculate the maximum operating voltage of cable A, assuming a safety margin of ×2, and indicate where on the cable's cross section dielectric breakdown is most likely to occur.arrow_forward: For the gravity concrete dam shown in the figure, the following data are available: The factor of safety against sliding (F.S sliding)=1.2 Unit weight of concrete (Yconc)=24 KN/m³ - Neglect( Wave pressure, silt pressure, ice force and earth quake force) μ=0.65, (Ywater) = 9.81 KN/m³ Find factor of safety against overturning (F.S overturning) 6m3 80m Smarrow_forward
