Assignment III, DC and Synchronous Machine (EE-401)

4th Semester EE, Spring 2020

1. A short shunt compound d.c. generator delivers 100 A to a load at 250 V. The generator
has shunt field and armature resistance of 130 Ω, 0.1 Ω and 0.1 Ω respectively. Calculate
the voltage generated in armature winding. Assume 1 V drop per brush.

2. A shunt generator gives full load output of 30 kW at a terminal voltage of 200 V. The
armature and shunt field resistances are 0.05 Ω and 50 Ω respectively. The iron and
friction losses are 1000 W. Calculate (a) generated e.m.f., (b) copper losses, and (c)
efficiency.
