QUESTION 4 a) The power flow diagram of shunt DC generator is shown in figure below. The rotational losses of the generator are 120W. Find the following: Total copper loss. i. ii. Mechanical developed power. Overall efficiency, n of the generator iii. Pin Pm 465 W 450 W 18 kW (4 marks) b) A compound DC motor draws a full load line current of 30 A from a terminal voltage of 240 V. The armature, series and shunt field resistance are 0.4 0, 0.05 and 120 02, respectively. The machine runs at a speed of 1200 rpm with friction and windage losses of 370 W. Compute the: i. The counter emf of the motor. ii. The mechanical power developed. iii. The output power. (6 marks)
