Question: A 2 0 0 kW , 4 0 0 V short shunt compound generator develops 3 7 5 V on no - load when running

A 200 kW,400 V short shunt compound generator develops 375 V on no-load when running at 1400 rpm. The speed of the machine falls to 1375 rpm on full-load and terminal voltage rises to 400 V. If the increase in ux from no-load to full-load is 15%, calculate the value of armature resistance. The series and shunt eld resistance are 0.02 ohm and 100 ohm respectively. Assume brush contact drop as 1 V/brush.
