Q1: (ILOs 4 ) C Points: 10
A separately excited DC generator is rated at Pout = 10kW , VT= 250V and a speed of
n=1000rpm. The armature resistance is RA= 0.2 Ω . The filed coil has RF=100 ohm and R adj
connected in series and supplied from a 200 V supply.. The mechanical and core losses are 500
watt(stray losses are neglected). The magnetization curve of the generator , at n=1000 rpm , is given
in the following table :

IF (A) : 0.2 0.3 0.5 0.7 1 1.6 2

EA (V): 100 150 200 250 275 305 327

Determine the followings:-

(a)- The no load terminal voltage at 800 rpm if Radj is set to 100 ohm?

b) the full load terminal voltage at 800 rpm if Radj is set to 100 ohm?

c) the efficiency of the generator in part b.

d) what should be the value of Radj to make the full load terminal voltage equals 225 volt at 900 rpm.

e) what should be the value of the speed to make the full load terminal voltage equals 225 at Radj=150 ohm

Good Luck
