EE3405 Electrical Machines 2 Important Questions

Unit 1

  1. With neat diagram, describe the construction and working of alternator.
  2. Discuss the parallel operation of two alternators with identical speed/load characteristics.
  3. Describe the parallel operation of three phase alternators with help of a neat diagram.
  4. Explain the principle and construction of synchronous generator with neat diagram. Derive its emf equation.
  5. Derive the generated EMF expression for an alternator. What will be the rms value of emf induced per phase in 3-phase, 6-pole, star-connected alternator having a stator with 90 slots and 8 conductors per slot? The flux per pole is 0.4mWb and it runs at a speed of 1000 rpm. Assume full-pitched coils and sinusoidal flux distribution.
  6. How the regulation of an alternator is found using EMF method? A single-phase, 500 V, 50 Hz alternator produces a short-circuit current of 170 A and an open circuit emf of 425 V when a field current of 15A passes. through its field winding. If its armature has an effective resistance of 0.2 ohm, determine its full-load regulation at unity pf and at 0.8 pf lagging using EMF method.
