The three methods of breaking a motor.

Explanation of Solution
The electrical motor uses three types of braking the
Mechanical braking
In mechanical braking there are two type breaks drum and disc. In drum the pressure is applied to the metal cylinder called the drum by the help of break shoe. The drum is connected to the motor shaft. The pressure on the drum stops the motor from rotating. The disc rakes is most common braking, its working is similar to drum brake with difference that the brake pads exert the pressure on the spinning disc.
Dynamic braking
The dynamic braking is used to limit the dc motor and ac motor speed, in this method the motor supply is cut and rotating motor is connected across a load the power so produced is dissipated in the load thus stopping the motor.
Plugging
The plugging is the method used by the dc motor with the squirrel cage motor in this method. This is done by reversing the magnetic field in which the motor is operating. The reversing of the field reduces the speed and hence the motor.

- Fourth year Monthly exam\3 2024-2025 Power plant Time: 1 Hr Q1. A gas turbine power plant operates on a modified Brayton cycle consisting of two-stage compression with intercooling to the initial temperature between stages, two-stage expansion with reheating to the maximum cycle temperature, and two regenerative heat exchangers. The following data is given: Inlet air temperature: 300 K Maximum cycle temperature: 1400 K Pressure ratio across each compressor stage: 4 Pressure ratio across each turbine stage: 4 Isentropic efficiency of compressors and turbines: 85% Effectiveness of each regenerator: 80% a) Draw a schematic and T-s diagram of the cycle. b) Determine the thermal efficiency of the cycle. c) Calculate the net specific work output (in kJ/kg). d) Discuss the impact of regenerators on the cycle performance.

Water, flowing at 5 m3/h, is used to cool the hexane.The water enters the heat exchanger at 15°C. The UA product of the heat exchanger is found to be2.7 kW/K. Determine the outlet temperatures of the hot and cold fluids and the heat transfer ratebetween them using LMTD method.arrow_forward

- A boiler with 80% efficiency produces steam at 40bar and 500 C at a rate of 1.128kg/s. The temperature of the feed water is raised from 25 C to 125 C in the economizer and the ambient air is drawn to the boiler at a rate of 2.70 kg/s at 16 C. The flue gases leave the chimney at rate of 3 kg/s at 150 C with specific heat of 1.01 kJ/kg.K. The dryness fraction of steam collected in the steam drum is 0.95. 1- Determine the heat value of the fuel. 2- The equivalence evaporation. 3- Draw the heat balance sheet.arrow_forwardA rotating shaft is made of 42 mm by 4 mm thick cold-drawn round steel tubing and has a 6 mm diameter hole drilled transversely through it. The shaft is subjected to a pulsating torque fluctuating from 20 to 160 Nm and a completely reversed bending moment of 200 Nm. The steel tubing has a minimum strength of Sut = 410 MPa (60 ksi). The static stress-concentration factor for the hole is 2.4 for bending and 1.9 for torsion. The maximum operating temperature is 400˚C and a reliability of 99.9% is to be assumed. Find the factor of safety for infinite life using the modified Goodman failure criterion.arrow_forwardI need help with a MATLAB code. This code just keeps running and does not give me any plots.
