MMF Method:
1. Vph =
(Volts)
2. IL = Iph =
(Volts)
3. Calculating open circuit voltage = Vph + Iph Ra cosФ (Volts)
4. Field current corresponding to short circuit current = F AR (Amps)
5. FR = √ (Fo ± F AR sinФ + Iasc Xs) 2 + (F AR sinФ) 2
Where (+) for lagging power factor
(-) for leading power factor
6. % Regulation = x 100
PROCEDURE:
OPEN CIRCUIT TEST:
1. Give the connections as per the circuit diagram.
2. Keep the alternator side TPST open till the completion of OC test.
3. The motor side DPST switch is closed and the set is started with the help of the 3-point starter.
4. The set is run at various speeds by adjusting the field rheostat of DC motor and the corresponding
voltage generated by the alternator is noted down by the voltmeter.
5. This step is repeated up to the rated voltage generated by the alternator.
6. By varying the alternator field rheostat, the voltage generated for different currents are noted and
tabulated.
SHORT CIRCUIT TEST:
1. Give the connections as per the circuit diagram.
2. The alternator terminals are short circuited by closing the TPST switch.
3. The DC supply is given to the motor by closing DPST switch and the motor starts to rotate.
4. The field rheostat of alternator varied up to rated current and the corresponding field current of
alternator noted down.
5. Now the supply of the set is switched off by opening both DPST switches.
