Q#1 Induction Machines GATE EE 2008 MCQ +2 marks -0.66 marks

A 3-phase, 440 V, 50 Hz, 4-pole, slip ring induction motor is fed from the rotor side through an autotransformer and the stator is connected to a variable resistance as shown in the figure.

The motor is coupled to a 220V, separately excited, dc generator feeding power to fixed resistance of10Ω. Two-wattmeter method is used to measure the input power to induction motor. The variable resistance is adjusted such that the motor runs at 1410 rpm and the following readings were recorded:

,

The speed of rotation of stator magnetic field with respect to rotor structure will be

90 rpm in the direction of rotation

90 rpm in the opposite direction of rotation

1500 rpm in the direction of rotation

1500 rpm in the opposite direction of rotation
