A problem for drawing circle diagram for 3-phase induction motor Given a 3- phase induction motor, 400V, Y connected,
No, of poles =2, frequency =50Hz No load test: VNL = 400V INL=20A PNL=4500W Blocked rotor test VBR=100V IBR=40A R2= 0.5 R1 (i) (ii) (iii) (iv) Solution The blocked rotor values should be corrected to 400V VBR =400V IBR = 40*400/100 =160A PBR= 2000*4*4=32000W The power scale shall be taken as 4500W = 1 cm Hence 32000W shall be 32000/4500 = 7.1 cm Short circuit power factor = 32000 / 3/160 /400 = 0.288 hence =73.2 Horizontal distance of the short circuit point = 7.1 * tan = 23.5 cm PF at no load = 4500 / 3/20 /400 = 0.324 hence =71 Horizontal distance of the noload point = 1 * tan = 2.9 cm The distance ON =3.08cm = 20A Hence the scale of the current = 20/3.08 =6.5A/cm The distance OP = 24.65 cm = 160A Draw ON at 3.08 cm and an angle =73.2 Draw OP at 24.65 cm and an angle =71 Draw PN and find the mid distance point M Draw MC perpendicular to PN. It intersects the horizontal line from N at C Draw a semicircle with center C and radius CN or CP Draw a vertical line from P. It intersects with horizontal line from N at D Divide PD into PR and RD so that PR/RD = R2/ R1= 0.5 Draw the torque line RN The power line is NP Draw maximum torque line tangent to the circle at T and parallel to NR Draw maximum power factor line tangent to the circle at F from origin OF is the current at maximum power factor = 8.5 cm = 55.25A Maximum power factor = 6.75/8.5 = 0.794 Locate F1, F2 and F3 Slip = F1-F2/F-F2 = 0.25/5.25 = 0.047 Draw the circle diagram after choosing a suitable scale Draw the output power line and torque line Find the maximum power factor then at this power factor find the current, slip, efficiency, rotor copper loss, and torque Find the maximum Torque and at this power find the current, slip, efficiency, power factor, stator copper loss and toque PBR=2000W
Efficiency = F-F1/F-F3 = 5/6.7 = 74.6% Rotor cupper loss = F1-F2 = 0.25cm = 0.25*4500=1125W Torque = Airgap power F-F2 divided by synchronous speed = 5.25 * 4500/(3000*2/60) =75N.m. At maximum torque the slip is T1-T2/T-T2 = 0.75/8 = 0.09375 Efficiency = T-T1/T-T4 = 7.2/10.5 = 68.5% Stator Cupper Loss = T2-T3 = 1.55cm =1.55*4500 = 6975W Torque = T-T2/s = 8* 4500/(3000*2/60) = 114N.m.
