The stator of an alternator is wound for ____________ on the rotor
The stator of an alternator is wound for ____________ on the rotor:
- The same number of poles as
- More number of poles than
- Less number of poles than
- None of the above
Correct answer: 1. The same number of poles as
Keeping the same rating, the size of low-speed alternator is __________ that of high-speed alternator
Keeping the same rating, the size of low-speed alternator is __________ that of high-speed alternator:
- More than
- Less than
- About the same as
- None of the above
Correct answer: 1. More than
The DC armature resistance of delta-connected alternator measured across its two terminals is 2 Ω. The per phase resistance is
The DC armature resistance of delta-connected alternator measured across its two terminals is 2 Ω. The per phase resistance is:
- 1 Ω
- 2 Ω
- 3 Ω
- 4 Ω
Correct answer: 3. 3 Ω
Explanation:
The DC resistance measured across any two terminals of delta connected alterantor is equal to resistance of one phase in parallel with two other phases in series. Therefore the per phase DC armature resistance is half of measured value. In current case can be calculated as
= 2 + 2 || 2 = 3 Ω
The rating of the prime-mover driving an alternator is determined entirely on the basis of its
The rating of the prime-mover driving an alternator is determined entirely on the basis of its
- Voltage rating
- Current rating
- Speed rating
- Kw output rating
Correct answer: 4. Kw output rating
The armature reaction effect in a synchronous generator depends on which of following
The armature reaction effect in a synchronous generator depends on which of following:
- Speed
- load current
- PF of load
- Both 2 & 3
Correct answer: 4. Both 2 & 3
