The great advantage of the double squirrel-cage induction motor over single cage rotor is that its _________(a) efficiency is higher(b) power factor is higher(c) slip is larger(d) starting current is lowerThe question was asked in an interview for internship.I'm obligated to ask this question of Induction Motor as a Transformer topic in section Induction Machines of Electrical Machines |
Answer» RIGHT option is (d) starting current is lower For explanation I would say: The OUTER cage has higher resistance and low reactance while VICE versa for the inner cage. So at starting the current is confined to outer cage with the reduction in starting current IMPROVING the TORQUE. |

Answer» | |
158. |
The no load current of the induction motor is high due to _________(a) long and high reluctance path between stator and rotor(b) mutual flux having moderate reluctance path between stator and rotor(c) leakage flux having low reluctance iron core(d) leakage flux having high reluctance iron coreThe question was posed to me in a job interview.I want to ask this question from Induction Motor as a Transformer topic in chapter Induction Machines of Electrical Machines |
Answer» Right option is (a) long and high reluctance path between STATOR and rotor |
|
159. |
The no load current of the transformer is very less due to _________(a) mutual flux having low reluctance iron core(b) mutual flux having high reluctance iron core(c) leakage flux having low reluctance iron core(d) leakage flux having high reluctance iron coreI had been asked this question by my school principal while I was bunking the class.I'm obligated to ask this question of Induction Motor as a Transformer topic in portion Induction Machines of Electrical Machines |
Answer» CORRECT answer is (a) mutual flux having low reluctance iron core The BEST explanation: It is due to the low reluctance PATH, the flux requirement is low in the TRANSFORMER. |
