Problem (1):

The per-phase parameters of the equivalent circuit, for a 400V, 60Hz, 3 phase,
Y-connected, 4 pole induction motor are:

R1 = 2 x R2 = 0.2 Ω , X1=0.5 Ω , X2=0.2 Ω , Xm =20 Ω.

If the total mechanical and iron losses at 1755 rpm are 800 W, calculate:

a) input current. b) Input power. c) Output power.

d) Output torque. e) Efficiency.

Problem (2):

A three phase, 6 pole induction motor is rated 400Hz, 150V, 10hp, 3% slip at rated
power output. The windage and friction loss is 200W at rated speed. With the motor
operating at rated voltage, frequency, slip, and output power. Determine:

a) Rotor speed. b) Frequency of the rotor current.

c) Power crossing the air gap. d) Rotor copper loss.
e) Output torque.

Problem (3):
