Explanation of Solution

Given:

The number of phases of the system (n) is 3.

Calculation:

The below figure represents the three phase system.

Electrical Transformers and Rotating Machines, Chapter 7, Problem 1RQ

Figure-(1)

Calculate the number of degrees (θ).

  θ=360°n=360°3=120°

Thus, the number of degrees between the phase with each other of a three phase system is 120°.

The arc length voltage characteristic of a DC arc is given by the equation V=24+4L where 'V' is the arc voltage in volts and L' is the length in mm. The static volt-ampere characteristic of the power source is approximated by a straight line with no load voltage of 80V and the short circuit current of 600A. Then the optimum arc length is (mm).
