A large 3-phase, 4160 V, 60 Hz, squirrel-cage induction motor draws a current of 400 A and the total active power of 2500 kW when operating at full-load. The corresponding speed is accurately measured and is found to be 1178 r/min. The stator is connected in wye and the resistance between two stator terminals is 0.15 0. The total iron losses are 26.5 kW and the windage and friction losses are 15 kW. Calculate the following: The power factor at full-load The active power supplied to the rotor The total I²R losses in the rotor The load mechanical power [kW], torque [kN.m], and efficiency [%] a. b. C. d.
