6. A four-pole generator, having lap wound armature winding has 40 slot each slot containing 15
conductors. What will be the voltage generated in the machine when driven at 1400 rpm
assuming the flux per pole to be 8 mWb?

7. A shunt generator delivers 430A at 220V and the resistance of the shunt field and armature are
40 Ω and 0.04 Ω respectively. Calculate the generated emf?
8. A 9-pole D.C shunt generator with 700 wave-connected armature conductions and running at
500 rpm supplies a load of 13 Ω resistance at terminal voltage of 250 V. The armature resistance
is 0.25 Ω and the field resistance is 250 Ω. Find the armature current, the induced emf and the
flux per pole?
