1. A 3-ph, 400-V induction motor gave the following test readings; No-load : 400 V, 1250
W, 9 A, Short-circuit : 150 V, 4 kW, 38 A Draw the circle diagram. If the normal rating
is 14.9 kW, find from the circle diagram, the full-load value of current, p.f. and slip.
2. Draw the circle diagram for a 3.73 kW, 200-V, 50-Hz, 4-pole, 3-φ star-connected
induction motor from the following test data :
Estimate from the diagram for full-load condition, the line current, power factor and
also the maximum torque in terms of the full-load torque. The rotor Cu loss at
standstill is half the total Cu loss.
3. Draw the circle diagram from no-load and short-circuit test of a 3-phase. 14.92 kW,
400-V, 6-pole induction motor from the following test results (line values):
No-load : 400-V, 11 A, p.f. = 0.2
Short-circuit : 100-V, 25 A, p.f. = 0.4
Rotor Cu loss at standstill is half the total Cu loss. From the diagram, find:
(a) line current,
(b) slip, efficiency
(c) p.f. at full-load
(d) the maximum torque.
4. A 415-V, 29.84 kW, 50-Hz, delta-connected motor gave the following test data :
No-load test : 415 V, 21 A, 1,250 W
Locked rotor test : 100 V, 45 A, 2,730 W
