A separately excited dc motor has an armature resistance Rₐ = 0.05 Ω. The field excitation is kept constant. At an armature voltage of 100 V, the motor produces a torque of 500 Nm at zero speed. Neglecting all mechanical losses, the no-load speed of the motor (in radian/s) for an armature voltage of 150 V is _____ (up to 2 decimal places).

Correct Answer

600-600

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

Explanation:

At zero speed (N = 0)

induced voltage (E) = 0

∴ T = k ϕ Ia 1

⇒ T = kIa1 {∴ ϕ = Constant}

E = Vt - Ia1Ra

Ia1 = (100 - 0)/0.05 = 2000 A

Therefore,

K = (T/Ia1) = 500/2000 = 0.25

At no -load condition, load torque (TL) = 0

E2Ia2 = T ω

⇒ Iₐ₂ = 0

So, induced voltage

E₂ = k ϕ ω₂ = k ω₂ = 150

and k = 0.25

ω = E₂/k = 150/0.25 = 600 rad/sec

Therefore, no load speed of the motor is 600 rad/sec.
