Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Option 2: 492 W
Detailed Solution
Concept:
Power flow in the Induction motor is as shown below.Stator Stator Rotor lp| Rotor] Rotor o/p

Stator input power = P
_ 3nR,
Rotor input or air gap power Pin = —3— = P- stator loss
Rotor copper losses Peu = § X Pin = 317 Re
- = RR, a as
Gross mechanical power output Pp = Pin — Poy = M2 — 817Ry = 317 Ra (1*)
The relation between the rotor air gap power, rotor copper losses and gross mechanical power output
is,
Pig 1 Poy ? Py = 3H": : IPR, : SIZR, (154)
= Phy! Poy Py = 221: (2z4) = 1:8: (1-8)
Where, s = slip
Calculation:
Given-
Stator input power, P = 50 kW
Stator loss = 800 W
Slip, s = 3% = 0.03
Rotor input or air gap power, P,, = 50000 - 800 = 49200 W
Rotor copper loss, Poy = § Pin = 0.03 x 49200
Pou = 1476 W
Now rotor copper loss, P'ey = Peu/ 3
Poy = 492 W
