Question: A 5 0 Hp 4 - pole 4 6 0 V 6 0 Hz motor has the following equivalent circuit param - eters: R 1

A 50Hp 4-pole 460V 60Hz motor has the following equivalent circuit param-
eters:
R1=0.068
R2=0.048
X1= X2=0.4055
Xm =12.4
At full load at full load and 460V input, the slip is 0.71Hz. You are powering
this motor with a VFD with an active front end and the DC link voltage set-
point is 750VDC. Due to the high DC link voltage, the drive can run the motor
at a maximum of 485Vac without creating harmful harmonics.
a. At 485Vac calculate the new ID, IQ, IS, and s. Assume the torque does
not change.
b. In this application, the motor will spend long periods of time running
at 15% torque. What is the value of IQ, Is, and s at 15% torque when the
motor voltage is 485Vac?
