Right Answer is:
157
SOLUTION
Given a 3-phase, 4P, 50 Hz, 400 V Squirrel-cage induction motor.
Slip = 0.02
Speed of rotor flux with respect to the stationary observer in mechanical radians per second will be
ωm = (2 × 2πf)/P
= (2 × 2 × π × 50)/4
= 50π = 157 mech rad
The speed of the rotor flux is nothing but the synchronous speed.
= 157 mech rad/sec
