Question

1) A 100-V shunt motor is developing 6 hp while operating at an overall efficiency of 86%. The armature and shunt field resistances are 0.06 and 50 ohms respectively. Determine the stray power losses.

2) The field and armature resistance of a 400 V shunt motor are 200 ohms and 0.1 ohms, respectively. The motor takes 30 A of current while running at 1000 rpm. If the frictional losses are 400 W, determine the motor efficiency.

3) In a brake test of an elevator door, the ammeter and voltmeter measuring the input read 34 A at 220 V. The speed of the motor is found to be 910 rpm and the balance on the 0.61 m brake arm reads 11.9 kg. The dead weight of the arm is found to be 1.09 kg. What is the hp output of the motor?
