    The document contains calculations and test questions about a shunt-wound DC motor. It provides the motor's speed regulation as 13.92% at full load. It also gives measurements of voltage, current, torque and speed at different loads. Test questions ask the reader to calculate the motor's horsepower, efficiency, losses and starting current based on the data given.

    8. Calculate the speed vs. torque regulation (full load= 9 lbf.

    in) using the


    ````equation:

    % regulation=

    ( no load speed) – (full load speed) x 100

    ( full load speed)

    `````Speed regulation= 13.92%

    9. Set the dynamometer control knob at its full cw positon ( to provide the
    ````maximum starting load for the shunt-wound motor).

    10. a. Turn on the power supply and gradually increase the dc voltage until
    ``````the motor is drawing 3 amperes of line current. The motor should turn
    ``````very slowly or not at all.

    b. Measure and record the dc voltage and the torque developed.

    E= 120 V torque= 9 lbf. In

    c. Return the voltage to zero and turn off the power supply.

    11. a. The line current in Procedure 10 is limited only by the equivalent dc


    ```````resistance of the shunt-wound motor.

    b. Calculate the value of the starting current if the full line voltage (120
    ``````Vdc) were applied o the shunt-wound dc motor.

    ````Starting current= 0.817 A


    TEST YOUR KNOWLEDGE

    1. Calculate the hp developed by the shunt-wound dc motor when the torque is


    9 lbf. In. Use the equation:

    hp= (r/min) (lbf. in) (1.59)

    100, 000

    ___________________________________________________________________________________

    ___________________________________________________________________________________

    hp= ___________________

    2. Knowing that 1 hp is equivalent to 746 watts, what is the equivalent “watts


    output” of the motor in Question 1?

    ___________________________________________________________________________________

    ___________________________________________________________________________________

    Watts output= ___________________W

    3. What is the power input (in watts) of the motor in Question 1?

    ___________________________________________________________________________________

    ___________________________________________________________________________________

    Watts input= ___________________W

    4. Knowing the input and output power in watts, calculate the efficiency of the
    motor in Question 1.
    % efficiency= (power out/ power in) x 100

    ___________________________________________________________________________________

    ___________________________________________________________________________________

    Efficiency= ___________________%

    5. What are the losses (in watts) of the motor in Question 1?

    ___________________________________________________________________________________

    ___________________________________________________________________________________

    ______________________________________________________________

    Losses= ___________________W

    6. List where some of these losses occur.
