Calculate the following:

A 500 hp, three-phase, 2200 V, 60 Hz, 12-pole, Y-connected wound-rotor

induction motor has the following parameters:



a. Slip at maximum torque

b. Input current and power factor at maximum torque

c. Maximum torque

d. Resistance that must be added to the rotor windings (per phase) to achieve

maximum torque at starting


a.



b.

Using the equivalent circuit in Figure 5.35(b), the equivalent impedance of the

motor circuit is:



The input current is therefore:



It follows that the power factor at maximum torque is cos(43.03°) = 0.73

(lagging)

c.



d.
