How to calculate stator to rotor winding turns ratio?

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on calculating the stator to rotor winding turns ratio in electrical machines. A key insight is that the rotor current used for calculations must be referred to the stator side, necessitating the adjustment for the stator-to-turns ratio. The equation provided, P_{in} - i_s^2R_s - i_r^2R_r = P_{dev}, is essential for determining the correct turns ratio. The user attempted a calculation yielding X=211.8, but doubts its accuracy, suggesting a potential turns ratio of 1:1 based on equal measured currents.

Homework Statement


I have a set of data that I need to use to calculate the stator to winding turns ratio. A hint was given:

"The rotor current measured is the rotor winding current. However, the rotor current we use for our calculations is the current referred to the stator side of the machine. Therefore, to get the right value, you have to account for the stator-to-turns ratio."

Homework Equations


## P_{in} - i_s^2R_s - i_r^2R_r = P_{dev}##

The Attempt at a Solution


I tried
## 226 - (1.005)^212 - (X0.9)^218 = 213.819##
and got X=211.8 but I don't think its correct?

Because you measured the stator and rotor currents to be about equal, then it sounds like the turns ratio is 1:1

BTW, it would have been much better if you had typed the table values in your post, instead of attaching an almost indecipherible photo. That's something to remember for next time.
