A 3-phase, 5 kW, 440 V, 50 Hz, 4-pole, Y-connected synchronous motor has stator winding resistance of 0.2 Ω, synchronous reactance of 8 Ω and a rated field current of 1 A. When operating at full load the power factor is unity. (i) Calculate the torque angle when operating at full load (ii) Pull-out torque and power, (iii) Power factor, armature current and efficiency at half rated torque, and (iv) Field current to get unity power factor at half the rated torque.
