A shunt-connected DC motor operates at its rated terminal voltage. Its no-load speed is 200 radians/ second. At its rated torque of 500 Nm, its speed is 180 radian/second. The motor is used to directly drive a load whose load torque TL depends on its rotational speed (in radians/second), such that TL = 2.78 × ωT. Neglecting rotational losses, the steady-state speed (in radian/second) of the motor, when it drives this load is ______.

- 179.86
- 179
- 86
- 17
Correct Option: A
Under steady state condition
load torque = motor torque
∴ 500 = 2.78 × ωT
∴ ωT = | = 178.88 rad / sec | |
20 + 8 |
