Problem 3 (20 Marks) A three phase induction motor with "Design B" characteristics has the motor name plate details are as follows: RATING 22 kW VOLTAGE 415 V POLES 6 CURRENT 39.8 A SPEED 965 rev/min CONNECTION DELTA FREQUENCY 50 Hz NEMA DESIGN B The friction-windage loss plus the core loss Pf/w + Pcore= 1.53 kW may be considered constant over the speed range of the motor and the motor parameters are: R1= 0.981 (2, X]: 1.80 (2, and X M= j80 Q. When operating at a speed of 970 rev/min (not full load) the load torque is 190.5 Nm and the input power factor is 0.906 lagging. Calculate for a speed of 97OreV/min: a) The output power PM of the motor. b) The input line current I L to the motor. c) The efficiency of the motor.
