Question

Consider the table given :

Constructional feature
Machine type
Mitigation
P. Damper bars
S. Induction motor
X. Hunting
Q. Skewed rotor slots
T. Transformer
Y. Magnetic locking
R. Compensating
winding
U. Synchronous
machine
Z. Armature
reaction

V. DC machine

The correct combination that relates the constructional feature, machine type and mitigation is

Options :

  1. P-V-X, Q-U-Z, R-T-Y

  2. P-U-X, Q-S-Y, R-V-Z

  3. P-T-Y, Q-V-Z, R-S-X

  4. P-U-X, Q-V-Y, R-T-Z

Answer :

P-U-X, Q-S-Y, R-V-Z

Solution :

(i) Damper bars are used in synchronous machines to eliminate hunting (P-U- X)
(ii) Skewed rotor slots are used in induction machine to reduce magnetic locking (cogging) (Q-S-Y)
(iii)Compensating winding is used in DC machine to neutralize armature reaction (R-V-Z) .
Hence, the correct option is (B).
