Exam Question

(a) Electric motors contain a stationary member as well as a rotating member. For sach of the following machinens, identify in which part of the motor three field winding and the armature winding are located: three phase induction motor, three phase synchronous motor, d.c motor. (6)

(b) A 220V d.c. shunt motor has an artmature resistance of 0.5 ohm and an armature current of 40 A on full load. Determine the reducion in flux necessary for a 50 per cent reduction in speed. The torque for both conditions can be assumend to remain constant. (10)
