Question 1 (2 points):
A series excited DC machine motor gets parameters: Prated = 65 kW (rated power); Urated = 250 V (rated
voltage); nrated = 1200 rpm (rated speed); hrated = 0,88 (rated efficiency).
a. Please calculate the excited current when the motor is working with the 70% of the rated load
(knowing that the efficiency is considered as a constant) (1 point)
b. The speed of the motor is controlled by a method of changing the flux. Please draw the diagram and
explain that method (1 point).

Urated (0.5 point).

Question 4 (2 points): A synchronous generator has parameters: S = 1600 kVA, U = 400V, f = 50Hz,
cosj = 0.8, p =2; ηrated = 92%. This machine is connected to the load of 1120kW, with cosj = 0.8
(inductive load).
a. Please the load current supplied by the above generator (0.5 point).
b. A set of the compensated compacitor is connected to the load in parallel to increase cosj = 0.95.
Please determine the active and reactive powers? Please compute the torque of the primary machine
connected to the generator (Note that: the efficiency is considered as a constant) (1.5 points).
Question 3 (2 points): A three phase transformer has a schematic connection and rated paramters: S =
1250 kVA, U1/U2 = 22/0,4 kV – 50Hz, P0 = 1025W, I0 = 1,5%, Un = 4%, Pn = 10710W.
