Question
A three-phase,50 Hz, 4- pole induction motor runs at no-load with a slip of 1%. With full load, the slip increases to5% . The % speed regulation of the motor (rounded off to two decimal places) is ______
Answer :
Ans. 4.21
Given that,
Number of poles (P) = 4
Frequency (f) = 50 Hz
Synchronous speed,
No load:
Slip at no load, s0 = 1 % Rotor speed at no load,
N0 = Ns (1 – s) = 1500(1 – 0.01) = 1485 rpm
Full load:
Slip at no load, s = 5 % Rotor speed at no load,
Speed at full load, N = Ns (1 – s) = 1500(1 – 0.05) = 1425 rpm
% speed regulation
