Question: 4 . ( a ) A separately excited DC motor with motor constant of ( 0 . 2 mathrm { ~V } /

4.(a) A separately excited DC motor with motor constant of \(0.2\mathrm{~V}/\mathrm{rpm}\) and resistance of \(0.5\Omega \) is operated by a single-phase full-bridge converter with single-phase squarewave voltage supply. When the motor is operated at firing angle \(\alpha=0^{\circ}\), its speed is 1200 rpm with an armature current of 30 A .
(i) Find the voltage of the single-phase square-wave voltage supply.
(ii) Based on the voltage found in part (a)(i), find the armature current at an operating speed of 800 rpm and firing angle \(\alpha=30^{\circ}\).
(iii) If the armature current is adjusted to 10 A , find the firing angle (in degree) if the motor is operated at operating speed of 1000 rpm .
(iv) If the armature current is adjustable, based on the firing angle found in part (a)(iii), find the maximum operating speed (in rpm) that the motor can achieve.
(v) If the voltage supply is replaced with a sinusoidal-wave voltage input, based on the same conditions, i.e., the motor can be operated at firing angle \(\alpha=0^{\circ}\) to provide speed of 1200 rpm with armature current of 30 A , find the voltage of the sinusoidal-wave voltage supply.

(b) A separately excited DC motor with resistance of \(0.2\Omega \) is operated by a buck converter with \(120-\mathrm{V}\) dc input supply. The converter is operated with duty ratio between 0.3 and 0.8. The motor is kept driving a constant-torque load of 18 Nm . It can reach a minimum speed of 300 rpm .
(i) Find the range of output voltage of the buck converter.
(ii) Find the value of the armature current. (Hint: the value of armature current should be less than 20 A )
(iii) Find the motor constant (in V/rpm).
(iv) Based on the motor constant found in part (b)(iii), find the maximum speed (in rpm).
