Sign in to UnlockA 3 phase, 10 kW, 400 V, 4 pole, 50 Hz, star connected induction motor draws 20A on full load. It’s no load and blocked rotor test data are given below:
No Load test : 400 V 6A 1002 W
Blocked Rotor test : 90 V 15A 762 W
Neglecting copper loss in no Load test and core loss in Blocked Rotor test, estimate motor’s full load efficiency

Sign in to UnlockA 3 kW, 400V/200V, Delta/Star, 50Hz, three phase, 6-pole induction motor is found to draw a line current of 25A at a power factor of 0.4, when a blocked rotor test is conducted at the rated voltage. The stator and rotor winding resistances in ohms per phase are A and B, if the torque developed by the motor under the above conditions is 25 N-m. Find A+B=
