Question

A 4-pole induction motor with inertia of 0.1 kgm2 drives a constant load torque of 2 Nm. The speed of the motor is increased linearly from 1000 rpm to 1500 rpm in 4 seconds as shown in the figure below. Neglect losses in the motor. The energy, in joules, consumed by the motor during the speed change is ______. (round off to nearest integer)

Show Answer

Answer :

1732.5 (Range : 675 to 700 or 1725 to 1740)


The equation of speed with respect to time is given by

N = 125 t + 500 for 4 sec ≤ t ≤ 8 sec

We know that,

J d ω d t = T e T L

T e = J d ω d t + T L

ω T e = J ω d ω d t + ω T L

P e = J ω d ω d t + ω T L

d E d t = J ω d ω d t + ω T L

⇒ dE = jωdω + TLωdt

⇒ E = J∫ωdω + TL∫ωdt

E = J ( 2 π 60 ) 2 1000 1500 N d N + T L 2 π 60 4 8 N d t

= J ( 2 π 60 ) 2 ( N 2 2 ) 1000 1500 + 2. 2 π 60 4 8 ( 125 t + 500 ) d t

= 0.1 × ( 2 π 60 ) 2 ( 1500 2 1000 2 2 ) + 2. 2 π 60 [ 125 t 2 2 + 500 t ] 4 8

=685.339 + 1047.197

= 1732.5865 J
