1.6 inches = 1.6 inches x 1,000 mils per inch = 1,600 mils 0.25 inch = 0.25 inch x 1,000 mils per inch = 250 mils Area = 1,600 x 250 = 400,000 square mils
The speed regulation of a motor expresses how much its speed varies between no-load and full load. The synchronous motor runs at a constant speed whose magnitude is dependent on supply frequency and the number of poles. Since the speed of the motor is constant hence its speed regulation is zero. Under no-load conditions with normal excitation, armature current Ia drawn by a synchronous motor lags the applied voltage V by a small angle.
A coil having large number of turns of fine wire is wound on the middle limb of the shunt magnet. This coil is known as pressure or voltage coil and is connected across the supply mains. The voltage coil produces a high ratio of inductance to resistance.
