    Class - Test

    October - 2018

    Paper Title: Electrical Machines Time: 1 Hrs.

    Paper Code: ETME - 209 Max. Marks: 15

    Attempt any three questions.

    Q.1 Derive EMF equation for an alternator. Explain the meaning of (a) distribution factor and
    (b) coil – span factor. Give expression for them.

    Q.2 What is armature reaction? Explain the effect of armature reaction on terminal voltage
    of an alternator at (i) unity power factor load (ii) Zero lagging power factor load and (iii)
    zero leading power factor load. Draw the relevant phasor diagrams.

    Q.3 Explain the MMF method of determining the voltage regulation of an alternator.

    OR

    Why synchronous motor is not self-starting? What methods are generally used to start
    the synchronous motor?

    Q.4 Using double – revolving field theory, explain why a single phase induction motor is not
    self -starting.

    OR

    Give details of four methods of starting small single phase induction motors, and
    mention typical application for which these types would be suitable.
