A 30 induction machine is mechanically coupled to a dc shunt machine. The rating and para- meters of the machines are as follows:
Induction machine:
30,5 kVA, 208 V,60 Hz, four-pole, 1746 rpm R_{1}=0.25Omega X_{1}=0.55Omega R_{2}'=0.35Omega X_{2}'=1.1Omega X_{m}=38Omega
DC machine:
220 V,5 kW,1750 rpm R_{a}=0.4Omega Rfw =100\Omega , Rfc =100\Omega
The induction machine is connected to a 30,208 V,60 Hz supply, and the de machine is con- nected to a 220 V dc supply. The rotational loss of each machine of the M-G set may be considered constant at 225 W.
The system rotates at 1710 rpm in the direction of the rotating field of the induction machine.
(a) Determine the mode of operation of the induction machine.
(b) Determine the current taken by the induction machine.
(c) Determine the real and reactive power at the terminals of the induction machine and indicate their directions.
(d) Determine the copper loss in the rotor circuit.
