DC GENERATOR - Practice Mode

1) What is the effect if the shunt field resistance is above critical resistance value in a D.C generator?
Correct Answer: Generator fails to build up voltage
2) What is the effect of armature reaction in DC generator?
Correct Answer: Output voltage decreases
3) Calculate the emf generated in a 4 pole DC generator with simplex wave wound armature has 1020 conductors and driven at a speed of 1500 rpm, the flux / pole is 0.007 webers?
Correct Answer: 357 V
4) How the effect of armature reaction can be neutralized in large DC generators?
Correct Answer: Using compensating winding
5) What is the effect in D.C generator, if it is kept ideal for long time?
Correct Answer: Looses its residual magnetism
