Mention the types of braking Regenerative braking Dynamic braking Plugging
2. What are the advantage and disadvantages of D.C. drives? The advantages of D.C. drives are, a. Adjustable speed b. Good speed regulation c. Frequent starting, braking and reversing. The disadvantage of D.C. drives is the presence of a mechanical commutator which limits the maximum power rating and the speed.
3. Give some applications of D.C. drives. The applications of D.C. drives are, a. Rolling mills b. Paper mills c. Mine winders d. Hoists e. Machine tools f. Traction g. Printing presses h. Excavators 1. Textile mils j. Cranes.
4. Why the variable speed applications are dominated by D.C. drives? The variable speed applications are dominated by D.C. drives because of lower cost, reliability ad simple control.
5. What is the use of flywheel? Where it is used? It is used for load equalization. It is mounted on the motor shaft in compound motor.
6. What are the advantages of series motor? The advantages of series motors are, a. High starting torque b. Heavy torque overloads.
7. How the D.C. motor is affected at the time of starting? A D.C. motor is started with full supply voltage across its terminals, a very high current will flow, which may damage the motor due to heavy sparking at commuter and heating of the winding. Therefore, it is necessary top limit the current to a safe value during starting.
8. Define and mention different types of braking in a dc motor? In braking the motor works as a generator developing a negative torque which opposes the motion. Types are regenerative braking, dynamic or rheostat braking and plugging or reverse voltage braking.
9. List the drawbacks of armature resistance control? In armature resistance control speed is varied by wasting power in external resistors that are connected in series with the armature. since it is an inefficient method of speed control it was used in intermittent load applications where the duration of low speed operations forms only a small proportion of total running time.
10. What is static Ward-Leonard drive? Controlled rectifiers are used to get variable d.c. voltage from an a.c. source of fixed voltage controlled rectifier fed dc drives are also known as static Ward-Leonard drive.
11. What is a line commutated inverter? Full converter with firing angle delay greater than 90 deg. is called line commutated inverter. such an operation is used in regenerative braking mode of a dc motor in which case a back emf is greater than applied voltage.
12. Mention the methods of armature voltage controlled dc motor? When the supplied voltage is ac, Ward-Leonard schemes Transformer with taps and un controlled rectifier bridge Static Ward-Leonard scheme or controlled rectifiers When the supply is dc: Chopper control
13. How is the stator winding changed during constant torque and constant horsepower operations? For constant torque operation, the change of stator winding is made form series star to parallel star, while for constant horsepower operation the change is made from series-delta to parallel-star. Regenerative braking takes place during changeover from higher to lower speeds.
14. Define positive and negative motor torque. Positive motor torque is defined as the torque which produces acceleration or the positive rate of change of speed in forward direction. Positive load torque is negative if it produces deceleration.
15. Write the expression for average o/p voltage of full converter fed dc drives? Vm=(2Vm/pi)cospi.................continuous conduction Vm=[Vm(cos alpha-cos beta)+(pi+alpha+beta)]/pi]........discontinuous conduction
16. What are the disadvantages of conventional Ward-Leonard schemes? Higher initial cost due to use of two additional m\cs. Heavy weight and size. Needs more floor space and proper foundation. Required frequent maintenance. Higher noise and higher loss.
17. Mention the drawbacks of rectifier fed dc drives? Distortion of supply. Low power factor. Ripple in motor current
18. What are the advantages in operating choppers at high frequency? The operation at a high frequency improves motor performance by reducing current ripple and eliminating discontinuous conduction.
19. Why self commutated devices are preferred over thyristors for chopper circuits? self commutated devices such as power MOSFETs power transistors, IGBTs, GTOs and IGCTs are preferred over thyristors for building choppers because they can be commutated by a low power control signal and dont need commutation circuit.
20. State the advantages of dc chopper drives? Dc chopper device has the advantages of high efficiency, flexibility in control, light weight, small size, quick response and regeneration down to very low speed.
21. What are the advantages of closed loop c of dc drives? Closed loop control system has the adv. of improved accuracy, fast dynamic response and reduced effects of disturbance and system non-linearities.
22. What are the types of control strategies in dc chopper? Time ratio control. Current limit control.
23. What are the adv. of using PI controller in closed loop ctrl. of dc drive? Stabilize the drive Adjust the damping ratio at the desired value Makes the steady state speed error close to zero by integral action and filters out noise again due to the integral action.
