Want this question answered?
60Hz generator can be operated at 50Hz as along as certain conditions are met.Basically the problem is that there is a max flux achieveble in any given machine and EA = K(pie)(w) the max allowable E changes when the speed is changed. Vltage must be derated to 50/60 or 83.3% of its original value. jUst the opposite effect happen when 60Hz generator is operated at 50Hz.
Yes that's fine provided the voltage is the same in both cases.But if a 60 Hz transformer is run on 50 Hz it might run slightly warmer than usual so it might need to be derated by 20% or so.CommentIt might be worth while pointing out that it's the voltage that needs to be derated by around 20% when a 60-Hz transformer is operated at 50 Hz.
As per transformer equation,E=4.44 * freq * flux * Turns.So E/ freq =Flux. So when a transformer is designed for 60Hz ,it CANNOT be operated at 50Hz and if operated may create heating effects and core saturation etc. Because E/60< E/50. However the converse condition is true i.e. a 50 HZ transformer can be used for 60Hz application Because E/50>E/60
Only issue would be the losses. Iron losses will be largly affected
No 50Hz
10HZ. Enjoi!
yes
you can't
You don't.
ONE THING FOR SURE THERE IS NO CHANGE IN VOLTAGE IF SAME EQUIPMENT WE ARE TALKING ABOUT. THE ISSUE HERE IS THE CHANGING LOAD FREQUENCY 60HZ TO 50HZ OR VICE VERSA. FOR EXAMPLE THE MOTOR HORSEPOWER AND R.P.M. WILL BE APPROXIMATELY 90 AND 83 PERCENT OF THE NAMEPLATE SPECIFICATIONS, ALSO THE FULL LOAD RUNNING TORQUE WILL INCREASE APPROXIMATELY 8 PERCENT IF USED FROM 60HZ TO 50HZ.
Voltage has nothing to with frequency
One way would be to hook it up to a supply (by itself, with no load) and measure the speed with a contact tachometer. If your supply is 60Hz, and the motor speed corresponded to one of the standard motor speeds, it would be a pretty safe bet you had a 60Hz motor. If the speed was about 20% faster than a standard speed, the motor is probably a 50Hz motor. Or 20% slower if you were running a 60Hz motor on 50Hz For instance, a 1750 RPM 50Hz motor would spin at about 2100 RPM if you ran it on 60Hz.
