why rating of alternator in kva & induction motor in kw

Answer Posted / dhiren

In alternator the power depends upon the operating load
which is don’t know to the designer. So it is rated in kva,
its power varies depending upon load. But in motor the
operating p.f is known(i.e.8lag) so it is rated in kw.

A 500 V shunt motor runs at its normal speed of 250rpm when the armature current is 200A. The resistance of the armature is 0.12 Ω. Calculate the speed when a resistance is inserted in the field reducing the shunt field to 80% of normal value and the armature current is 100A.
