Question (a) A three-phase 50-Hz four-pole star-connected cage induction motor gave the following testing results: Stator winding resistance per phase 0.75 Ω Locked rotor test at rated stator current 100 V, 28 A, 2.8 kW No load test at rated stator voltage 380 V, 5 A, 2.1 kW Friction and windage losses are negligible. Based on the approximate model, (1) calculate the rated speed and rated torque of the machine; and (i) calculate the starting torque of the machine at direct online starting. (b) Briefly explain why induction machines are preferred over de machines in most industrial application
