Find the following given the
problem on the left:
a. starting line current drawn
by this motor at rated
conditions
b. output torque of the motor
at rated conditions
c. resistance that should be
inserted in series with the
armature circuit to limit the
starting armature current to
200% or less of its rated
value
A 240-volt self-excited shunt DC motor has field resistance R, = 200 ohms and armature resistance R = 0.25 ohms.
• No-load condition: The motor is run with a 240-volt DC source no load driven. The motor runs at 1800 RPM and draw 720 watts from
the source.
• Full-load condition: The motor is run with a 240-volt DC source while driving its rated load. The motor runs at 1700 RPM and draws
6400 watts.
Neglect effects of saturation and assume that rotational power losses are constant for any load. Stray load losses for this motor are
negligible. Answer the following questions for this machine.
