Substituting values








               Example 8.9    A 15 hp, three-phase, four-pole, 50 Hz induction motor has
               full-load speed of 1455 rpm. The friction and windage loss of the motor at

               this speed is 600 W. Calculate the rotor copper loss.


               Solution:










                Slip



               Motor output available at the shaft = 15 hp
                                                             = 15 × 735.5 W
                                                            = 11032 W


               Now, let us look at the power flow diagram
