Tutorial Questions (DC Motor) Q1

The document contains 6 tutorial questions about DC motors. Question 1 asks for the speed of a DC motor with a reduced supply voltage from 460V to 200V assuming a 30% decrease in flux. Question 2 gives specifications for a series motor and asks for the back EMF and new speed if current increases to 30A with doubled flux. Question 3 asks for the resistance needed to reduce the speed of a series motor from 800rpm to 600rpm with the same current. Question 4 asks for the speed of a series motor developing full load torque but with a field winding diverter. Questions 5 and 6 provide additional specifications for shunt motors and ask for the percent change in flux needed to reduce speed and the no load speed.

Tutorial questions (DC motor)

Q1: A DC motor has a speed of (900 r.p.m) when connected to a (460 V) supply. Find the approximate
value of the speed of the motor when connected to a (200 V) supply, assuming the flux decreases by (30%)
and neglecting the armature volt drop? (Ans: 559 rpm)

Q2: A series motor has an armature resistance of (0.2 Ω) and a series field resistance of (0.3 Ω). It is
connected to a (240 V) supply and at a particular load runs at (1440 r.p.m) when drawing (15 A) from the
supply.

(a) Determine the back e.m.f at this load. (Ans: 232.5 V)

(b) Calculate the speed of motor when the load is changed such that the current is increased to (30 A).
Assume that this cases a doubling of flux. (Ans: 696.77 rpm)

Q3: A series motor runs at (800 r.p.m) when the voltage is (400 V) and the current is (25 A). The armature
resistance is (0.4 Ω) and the series field resistance is (0.2 Ω). Determine the resistance to be connected in
series to reduce the speed to (600 r.p.m) with same current. (Ans: 3.85 Ω)

Q4: On full-load a (300 V) series motor takes (90 A) and runs at (900 rp m) the armature resistance is (0.1
Ω) and the series winding resistance is (50 mΩ). Determine the speed when developing full load torque
but with a (0.2 Ω) diverter in parallel with the field winding. (assume that the flux is proportional to the
field current). (Ans: 1004.4 rpm)

Q5: A 10 HP 240 volts 1200 rpm dc shunt motor is operating at rated conditions. Determine the percent
change in shunt field flux required to lower the speed to 900 rpm. Assume that armature current remains
the same. (Ans: 33%)

Q6: A 200 volt shunt motor is rated a 5 HP and 1000 rpm at rated output it draws 25 A of line current.
The total armature circuit resistance is 0.5 ohms. The field resistance is 100 ohms.

a) Find the total rotational losses of the motor at rated conditions. (Ans: 605.5 W)

b) Find the no load speed of the motor at 200 volts. (Ans. 1053 rpm)
