Q2. A three-phase, Y-connected, 400-V (line-line), 25-kW, 50-Hz, four-pole induction motor has
the following equivalent-circuit parameters in ohms per phase referred to as the stator:
R1=0.103, R2 = 0.225, X1=1.10, X2=1.13, Xm = 59.4
The total friction and windage losses may be assumed constant at 265 W, and the core loss may
be assumed to be equal to 220 W. The motor is connected directly to a 400-V source and runs

Q3. A 15-kW, 230-V, three-phase, Y-connected, 60-Hz, four-pole squirrel-cage induction motor
develops full-load internal torque at a slip of 3.5 percent when operated at rated voltage and
frequency. Rotational and core losses can be neglected. The following motor parameters, in ohms
per phase, have been obtained:

Determine
a. the maximum internal torque at rated voltage and frequency,
b. the slip at maximum torque,
c. the internal starting torque at rated voltage and frequency.
Q4. A three-phase induction motor, operating at rated voltage and frequency, has a starting torque
of 135 percent and a maximum torque of 220 percent, both with respect to its rated-load torque.
Neglecting the effects of stator resistance and rotational losses and assuming constant rotor
resistance, determine:
a. the slip at maximum torque
b. the slip at rated load
c. the rotor current at starting (as a percentage of rotor current at rated load).
Q5. A Δ-connected, 25-kW, 230-V, three-phase, six-pole, 50-Hz squirrel-cage induction motor

a. Calculate the rotational losses
b. Calculate the equivalent-circuit parameters in ohms; assume that Xl =X2
c. Compute the stator current, input power and power factor, output power, and efficiency when
this motor is operating at rated voltage and frequency at a slip of 2.95 percent.
Q7. A 230-V, three-phase, six-pole, 60-Hz squirrel-cage induction motor develops a maximum
internal torque of 288 percent at a slip of 15 percent when operated at rated voltage and frequency.
If the effect of stator resistance is neglected, determine the maximum internal torque that this
motor would develop if it were operated at 190 V and 50 Hz. Under these conditions, at what
speed would the maximum torque be developed?
Q8. A three-phase, 460-V, 60-Hz, four-pole, 500-hp wound-rotor induction motor, with its slip
tings short-circuited, has the following properties:
Full-load slip = 1.5 percent, Rotor I2R at full-load torque = 5.69 kW,
Slip at maximum torque = 6 percent,
Rotor current at maximum torque = 2.82I2,fl, where I2,fl is the full-load rotor current,
Torque at 20 percent slip = 1.20Tfl, where Tfl is the full-load torque,
Rotor current at 20 percent slip = 3.95 I2,fl. If the rotor-circuit resistance is increased to 5Rrotor
