Control Differential Transmitter

It can be used to produce a rotation equal to the sum of difference of the rotations of two shafts. The arrangement for this purpose is shown in Fig. 39.20 (a). Here, a CDX is coupled to a control transmitter on one side and a control receiver on the other. The CX and CR rotor windings are energized from the same single-phase voltage supply.

It has two inputs : Mechanical q and Electrical f and the output is Machnical (q - f). The mechanical input (q) to CX is converted and applied to the CDX stator. With a rotor input (f), the electrical output of the CDX is applied to the CR stator which provides the mechanical output (q - f).

As shown in Fig. 39.20 (b), if any two stator connections between CX and CDX are transposed, the electrical input from CX to CDX becomes -q, hence the output becomes (-q - f) = - (q + f).

Control Differential Receiver

In construction, it is similar to a CDX but it accepts two electrical input angles and provide the difference angle as a mechanical output (Fig. 39.21).

The arrangement consists of two control transmitters coupled to a CDR. The two control transmitters provide inputs to the CDX, one (q) to the stator and the other (f) to the rotor. The CDX output is the difference of the two inputs i.e.

Total Loss in a D.C. Generator The various losses occurring in a generator can be sub-divided as follows : where R a = resistance of armature and interpoles and series field winding etc. This loss is about 30 to 40% of full-load losses. Field copper loss. In the case of shunt generators, it is practically constant and I 2 R (or V I sh ). In the case of series generator, it is = I s e 2 R s e where R s e is resistance of the series field winding. This loss is about 20 to 30% of F.L. losses. (iii) The loss due to brush contact resistance. It is usually included in the armature copper loss. (b) Magnetic Losses (also known as iron or core losses), (i) hysteresis loss, W h µ B max f and ( ii ) eddy current loss, W e µ B max f These losses are practically constant for shunt and compound-wound generators, because in their case, field current is approximately constant. Both these losses total up to about 20 to 30% of F.L. losses. (c) Mechanica l Losses. These consist of :

Testing of d.c.Machines:Brake Test

By -
Image
Brake Test It is a direct method and consists of applying a brake to a water-cooled pulley mounted on the motor shaft as shown in Fig. 31.1. The brake band is fixed with the help of wooden blocks gripping the pulley. One end of the band is fixed to earth via a spring balance S and the other is connected to a suspended weight W 1. The motor is running and the load on the motor is adjusted till it carries its full load current. The simple brake test described above can be used for small motors only, because in the case of large motors, it is difficult to dissipate the large amount of heat generated at the brake. Another simple method of measuring motor output is by the use of poney brake one form of which is shown in Fig. 31.2 ( a ). A rope is wound round the pulley and its two ends are attached to two spring balances S 1 and S 2. The tension of the rope can be adjusted with the help of swivels. Obviously, the force acting tangentially on the pulley is equal to the differ ence

Transformer,three phase:Wye/Delta or Y/∆ Connection and Delta/Wye or ∆/Y Connection.

Wye/Delta or Y/∆  Connection The main use of this connection is at the substation end of the transmission line where the voltage is to be stepped down. The primary winding is Y -connected with grounded neutral as shown in Fig. 33.6. The ratio between the secondary and primary line voltage is 1/ 3 times the transformation ratio of each trans- former. There is a 30° shift between the primary and secondary line voltages which means that a Y - D transformer bank cannot be paralleled with either a Y - Y or a D - D bank. Also, third harmonic currents flows in the D to provide a sinusoidal flux. Delta/Wye or ∆/Y Connection This connection is generally employed where it is necessary to step up the voltage as for example, at the beginning of high tension transmission system. The connection is shown in Fig. 33.7. The neutral of the secondary is grounded for providing 3-phase 4-wire service. In recent years, this connection has gained considerable popularity because it can be used to serve
