    Engineering Understanding Windage/Friction Losses in Induction Motors

    Hi @anorlunda , So i know from the graph windage/friction losses constitute the power lost when the stator voltage=0V. I have actually reworked this question and got something I am more happy with. I've actually said the windage/friction loss is 220W from extending the graph to 0V. I know that...

    Engineering Understanding Windage/Friction Losses in Induction Motors

    So I've attached my graph and found that the windage/friction losses occur roughly around 230Watts. I just don't know how i further explain the magnetising current I0. I know I0 = input current on no load. So do i assumed from P = √3 x VL x IL x CosФ that CosФ=230/√3*220*6.8= 0.0849 or...

    Solving Homework: Understanding I/O Designation Charts

    Yeah you are correct, i meant IND 3 for rung 5 (N/O contactor 3/2). Also could you relink it, nothing there :) thanks!

    Solving Homework: Understanding I/O Designation Charts

    Homework Statement Uploaded as image 1 I will show my workings for 2 if 1 are in the right direction I also don't understand what is meant as I/O Designation charts (nowhere in my study notes) Homework Equations None The Attempt at a Solution Uploaded as image 2 is my attempt.

    Sketch the waveform to represent the transient response

    @rude man so after searching through second order system responses I have a graph that looks like this. How does it look?

    Sketch the waveform to represent the transient response

    Apologies I think I've gotten myself confused... I think I am looking too deep into it. I'll be back when i have some form of graph! Thanks for your help @rude man

    Sketch the waveform to represent the transient response

    This is what I'm unsure of, if it mentioned one of the above i could work through it via my notes... I've only encountered step change input for second order systems. Thus i understand which ones are under-damped (a/b) and which are over-damped c if this is the case. But how do i draw this? only...

    Sketch the waveform to represent the transient response

    Homework Statement Sketch, on a set of common axes, waveforms to represent the transient response of circuits having transfer functions with the following parameters: a) ζ = 0.5, ω = 1×10^3 rad s^-1 b) ζ = 0.2, ω = 2×10^3 rad s^-1 c) ζ = 2, ω = 1×10^3 rad s^-1 Homework Equations wd=wo√(1-ζ^2)...

    Controlled rectification question

    @jim hardy I'm still unsure on this question... sorry.

    Controlled rectification question

    Apologies i didn't add the image. So are you saying to integrate the sine wave between T/4 & T? Sorry only thing i found in my notes was very little other than the statement above.

    Controlled rectification question

    Homework Statement a) If the firing angle is set for alpha=(pi/3) estimate the power dissipated in the bulb if it is rated at 100 W and the voltage source is 230 V @ 50 Hz. b) An anomaly that can occur in controlled rectification is drift of the firing angle on one half cycle, so causing an...

    Fourier Analysis and the Significance of Odd and Even Functions

    Okay think i got it now :) thanks for your help.

    Fourier Analysis and the Significance of Odd and Even Functions

    Oh yeah! So by shifting it to the right by T/2 you would get a regular square wave? and thus making it have only sine terms. With regards to to whether they have symmetry I actually cannot tell now, it doesn't look symmetrial about the y-axis so it's not an even function but it doesn't have...
