Question: Question # 0 2 ( 2 0 ) A 1 2 5 V , 5 kW , 1 8 0 0 rpm dc shunt motor

Question # 02(20) A 125 V,5 kW,1800 rpm dc shunt motor requires only 5 volts to send full-load current through the armature when the armature is held stationary. (a) Determine the armature current if full-line voltage is impressed across the armature at starting. (b) Determine the value of the external resistance needed in series with the armature to limit the starting current to 1.5 times the full-load current. (c) The motor is coupled to a mechanical load by a belt. Determine the generated voltage at full load condition (Vt =125 V, n=1800 rpm, Ia =Ia(rated)). If the belt breaks, determine the speed of the motor. Neglect rotational losses and assume 10% reduction of flux at full load.
