The number of degrees by which, the voltages of a three phase system are out of each other.

Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark

Explanation of Solution

Given:

The number of phases of the system (n) is 3.

Calculation:

The below figure represents the three phase system.

Electrical Transformers and Rotating Machines, Chapter 7, Problem 1RQ

Figure-(1)

Calculate the number of degrees (θ).

  θ=360°n=360°3=120°

Thus, the number of degrees between the phase with each other of a three phase system is 120°.

Problem 3.30 A piston-cylinder device contains 0.85 kg of refrigerant- 134a at -10°C. The piston that is free to move has a mass of 12 kg and a diameter of 25 cm. The local atmospheric pressure is 100 kPa. Now, heat is transferred to refrigerant-134a until the temperature is 15°C. Determine (a) the final pressure, (b) the change in the volume of the refrigerant, and (c) the change in the enthalpy of the refrigerant-134a. please show Al work step by step
Part 1 The storage tank contains lubricating oil of specific gravity 0.86 In one inclined side of the tank, there is a 0.48 m diameter circular inspection door, mounted on a horizontal shaft along the centre line of the gate. The oil level in the tank rests 8.8 m above the mounted shaft. (Please refer table 01 for relevant SG, D and h values). Describe the hydrostatic force and centre of pressure with the aid of a free body diagram of the inspection door. Calculate the magnitude of the hydrostatic force and locate the centre of pressure. 45° Estimate the moment that would have to be applied to the shaft to open the gate. Stop B If the oil level raised by 2 m from the current level, calculate the new moment required to open the gate. Figure 01
