  RICH  DAD  POOR  DAD  BOOK REVIEW This is amazing book.   • Explodes the myth that you need to earn a high income to become rich • Challenges the belief that your house is an asset • Shows parents why they can't rely on the school system to teach their kids about money • Defines once and for all an asset and a liability • Teaches you what to teach your kids about money for their future financial success It's been nearly 25 years since Robert Kiyosaki’s  Rich Dad Poor Dad  first made waves in the Personal Finance arena. It has since become the #1 Personal Finance book of all time... translated into dozens of languages and sold around the world. Rich Dad Poor Dad  is Robert's story of growing up with two dads — his real father and the father of his best friend, his rich dad — and the ways in which both men shaped his thoughts about money and investing.

Testing of DC Machine /Hopkinson's Method or Regenerative Method or Back to Back Test Method

-

Hopkinson's Method 

In this method, two identical DC machines are both mechanically and electrical coupled, and are tested simultaneously. One of the machines is run as a motor, whereas the other as a generator.
the connection diagram of Hopkinson's test is given below:-







For performing the test, machine I is started as a DC shunt motor and brought to rated speed with switch 'S' open. Both machines run at same speed as both are mechanically coupled.

The field current of the generator (machine II) is so adjusted that its output terminal voltage changes and becomes equal to that supplied to the motor (machine I) terminals. 

At this time voltmeter V2  reads zero voltage. the switch 'S' is closed at that instant.
Under this condition, the generator will neither taking nor giving current to the supply.

After this state is achieved, any desired load can then be put on the generator by controlling the induced EMF of the machines.

If2  > If1 , machine II  acts as generator and machine I  as motor  ( Ea2 > Ea1 ).
As the generator induced EMF is more than that of the motor, current is supplied to the motor from the generator.

Machine I  drives Machine II  and Machine II  supplies electrical power to Machine I , Hence Hopkinson's test is called a regenerative test.



I = Total current supplied from the mains as read by the armature A1.

I2 = Generator armature current as read by the ammeter A2.

If1 = Motor field current as read by the armature A3.

If2 = Generator field current as read by the ammeter A4.

Vt = Supply voltage as read by the voltmeter V1.

R1  and  R2 = Hot resistance of armature circuits of the two machines.



Motor armature current, I1 = I + I2
Power drawn from supply by the two machines excluding field losses of both machines = Vt I
Motor armature circuit copper loss = I1^2 . R1
Generator armature circuit copper loss = I2^2 . R2


→ Input to motor armature = Vt I1
If motor efficiency = 𝜂m
Motor output = ðœ‚m . Vt I1 = Pom

→ Generator output = Vt I2
If generator efficiency =  ðœ‚g
Generator input = Vt I2 /𝜂g  = Pig



→If Rotational Losses are neglected between the two machines then mechanical output of motor will be equal to electrical input to the generator.

Pom = Pig  
𝜂m . Vt I1  =  Vt I2 /𝜂g 

𝜂m . ðœ‚g  = I2 /I1  ,    if   ðœ‚m  =  ðœ‚g   =  ðœ‚

𝜂 =  (I2 /I1)^1/2  =  (generator armature current / motor armature current)^1/2



If Rotational losses are not neglected,
therefore, Total iron + Rotational losses for two machines = Vt I - (I1^2  R1  +  I2^2  R2 )

Total iron + Rotational losses per machines  Wo  = 1/2{Vt I - (I1^2  R1  +  I2^2  R2 )}


For a motor,
Motor input power Pim = Vt I1  +  Vt If1

Motor losses Wm = Wo  +   I1^2  R1  +  Vt If1

Motor output power  Pom = Pim   -  Wm  
  
Hence, motor efficiency  ðœ‚m = Pom /Pim
   
                      𝜂m = {Vt I1  -  Wo  -  I1^2  R1} / {Vt I1  +  Vt If1}


For a generator,
Generator output power  Pog = Vt I2

Generator input power  Pig = Pog  +  Wg

Generator losses Wg = Wo  +  I2^2  R2  +  Vt If2

Hence, generator efficiency  ðœ‚g = Pog /Pig
  
                        𝜂g = Vt I2  / {Vt I2  +  Wo  +  I2^2  R2  +  Vt If2}

Ideal Transformer (1-phase) Operation Under Load

 What is Ideal Transformer ? An ideal transformer is a transformer with the following assumptions: Permeability of transformer is infinite. Iron loss in the transformer core are zero. Resistance of transformer winding is zero. No magnetic leakage flux, so coefficient of coupling is  1 . Magnetization curve of transformer is linear. Operation of Ideal transformer under load Schematic diagram of an ideal, 1-phase transformer under load When a finite impedance load Z L   is connected across the secondary terminals of a 1-phase transformer as shown in above figure, the load current I 2   flows through the secondary winding and the load. load current I 2   is given by:- I 2  = V 2 / Z L How will MMFs Produce ? A voltage source V 1   is connected to the primary winding. Due to this voltage V 1  primary current I 1   flowing through N 1   number of turns in the primary winding produces an MMF  N 1 .I 1   which creates the flux âēŠ in the core. This flux links with the secondary coil and induc

Compensating Winding

Compensating Winding The cross magnetizing armature reaction effect that causes concentration of flux under one pole tip is caused mainly by the conductors that lie under the pole are. When the machines are heavily loaded, the flux density at these tips become very high resulting in higher than normal induced voltage between concerned adjacent commutator segments. This may cause a spark over between adjacent commutator segments more so because these coils are physically close to the commutation zone where air temperature is high and favorable for spark over. This may lead to other segments also getting involved and resulting in fire over entire commutator segment. Also if load is rapidly fluctuating (e.g. rolling machine), L(di/dt) voltage of coils may became high enough to start a spark over between adjacent commutator segments. This phenomenon will start from the coil under the pole center and it would have maximum. This problem is more acute when load is decrea
