Hint: Solving some of the following depends greatly on the designated type of generator and its electrical structure. If you hove difficulty visualizing where current or voltage should be flowing, try drawing the schemotic and identifying applicable current paths.
Question 1: A 25kw, 125-V compound generator (short shunt) has a series field in which each coil has 6.5 turns. How many ampere-turns are produced by each coil?
Question 2: A short-shunt compound generator has 1000 turns per pole on the on the series field. If the shunt and series field ampere-turns are 1400 and 180, respe3ctively, calculate the power delivered to the load when the terminal voltage is 220 V. Repeat for a long-Shunt connection.
Question 3: If the no-load voltage of a separately excited generator is 125V at 900 r/min, what will be the voltage if the speed is increased to 1200 r/min? Assume constant field excitation.
Question 4: Name the 3 general types of DC generators. What specifies the type of machine?
Question 5: What is the difference in construction between a series and shunt field winding?
