TRANSFORMER ON LOAD

Figure 1.25(a) shows the transformer during no-load condition. The flux Φ is set up in the core. When the secondary is loaded shown in Figure 1.25(b), the secondary current will set up its own flux (Φ₂), which opposes Φ. The resultant flux becomes Φ – Φ₂. The value of e₁ will decrease because magnitude of Φ decreases. Hence, v₁ becomes greater than e₁ and the primary winding draws more current from the source. Let the additional current drawn by the primary be I₂^′. This current I₂^′ will set up its own flux (Φ₂^′) in the same direction of Φ and it will oppose Φ₂ shown in Figure 1.25(c). The resultant flux will be Φ at any load condition if and only if

Φ₂^′=Φ₂

i.e., N₁I₂^′=N₂I₂

Condition for Maximum Power Developed In Synchronous Motor

The value of δ for which the mechanical power developed is maximum can be obtained as, Note : Thus when R a is negligible, θ = 90 o for maximum power developed. The corresponding torque is called pull out torque. 1.1 The Value of Maximum Power Developed The value of maximum power developed can be obtained by substituting θ = δ in the equation of P m . When R a is negligible, θ = 90 o and cos (θ) = 0 hence, . . . R a = Z s cosθ and X s = Z s sinθ Substituting cosθ = R a /Z s in equation (6b) we get, Solving the above quadratic in E b we get, As E b is completely dependent on excitation, the equation (8) gives the excitation limits for any load for a synchronous motor. If the excitation exceeds this limit, the motor falls out of step. 1.2 Condition for Excitation When Motor Develops ( P m ) R max Let us find excitation condition for maximum power developed. The excitation

Effect of Slip on Rotor Parameters : Part2

Effect of Slip on Rotor Parameters 2. Effect of Slip on Magnitude of Rotor Induced E.M.F We have seen that when rotor is standstill, s = 1, relative speed is maximum and maximum e.m.f. gets induced in the rotor. Let this e.m.f. be, E 2 = Rotor induced e.m.f. per phase on standstill condition As rotor gains speed, the relative speed between rotor and rotating magnetic field decreases and hence induced e.m.f. in rotor also decreases as it is proportional to the relative speed N s - N. Let this e.m.f. be, E 2r = Rotor induced e.m.f. per phase in running condition Now E 2r α N s while E 2r α N s - N Dividing the two proportionality equations, E 2r /E 2 = ( N s - N)/N s but (N s - N)/N = slip s E 2r /E 2 = s E 2r = s E 2 The magnitude of the induced e.m.f in the rotor also reduces by slip times the
