11. What is the formula of the I2R loss?
a) I2R loss = number of conductors / copper loss in each conductor
b) I2R loss = number of conductors + copper loss in each conductor
c) I2R loss = number of conductors – copper loss in each conductor
d) I2R loss = number of conductors * copper loss in each conductor
View Answer
Explanation: The number of conductors and copper loss in each conductor is first calculated. On substitution the I2R loss is obtained.
12. What is the formula of the efficiency of the machine?
a) efficiency = output / output + losses
b) efficiency = output * output + losses
c) efficiency = output – output + losses
d) efficiency = output + output + losses
View Answer
Explanation: The output is first calculated from the running of the machine and the different losses are calculated. On substitution the efficiency of the machine is calculated.
13. The fractional horsepower motors have efficiency of order of 98%.
a) true
b) false
View Answer
Explanation: The fractional horse power motors have efficiency of order of 60% or less. The large turbo-alternators have efficiency of order of 98% because efficiency increases with an increase in dimensions.
