Question

A 20 kW, 300 V dc shunt motor is driving a constant torque load with line current of 100 A at a speed of 1600 rpm. Motor has armature and field winding resistance as 0.02 Ω and 100 Ω respectively. If 50 Ω external resistance is added in field circuit, then motor is running at (Assume linear magnetzation curve)

Solution

The correct option is C 2392.18 rpm
Case - I:


Armature current, Ia1=1003=97A

back emf, Ea1=30097×0.02

Ea1=298.06 V

Case - II:

When 50Ω external resistance added in field circuit,


Load torque is constant

TϕIa

ϕ2Ia2=ϕ1Ia1

ϕIf

Ia2=Ia1ϕ1ϕ2=97×32=145.5A

Ea2=300145.5×0.02

Ea2=297.09V

We know that, Eaϕ ωm

Ea2Ea1=ϕ2ϕ1×N2N1

297.09298.06=23×N21600

N2=2392.18 rpm
