Make wire connections as follows (x-y, drag connecting wire from point x (a blue point) and drop on point y (another blue point)):
1-12, 2-11, 7-6, 8-5, 4-35, 14-31, 32-18, 33-22, 34-23, 15-19, 19-23, 16-25, 20-26, 27-24, 28-23, 38-23.
Rotate the 'Reference Phase' variac to provide the reference phase voltage to 220 V. the corresponding box with reference phase variac shows the voltage applied.
This will be fixed throughout the experiment. Rotate the 'Control Phase' variac to provide the control phase voltage to 220 V. the corresponding box with control phase variac shows the voltage applied.
Click on 'Check Connection' button to check whether the wire connections are proper or not. If alert message is shown as 'wrong connection',
examine the established connections and select the incorrectly linked wire for removal by clicking on it.
Click on the red switch to switch on the regulated dc power supply. Rotate the dc supply voltage knob (beside the switch)
to increase the voltage value to 4.9 V. The motor will run with no load speed first. The corresponding box above the motor shows the speed value
in rpm .
There are weights (g) in the pink dotted box. Drag weights from that box to drop them on the blue dotted box, the total weight (g) value value would be shown
in corresponding box beside 'Chosen Weight (g)'. The weight must be chosen as follows.
Start with 20 g, then increase the weight by 20 g like 40, 60, 80, 100, 120, 140, 160, 180 and 200 g. More than one weight may be used to increase the weight value.
After a weight is chosen the green water bubble in the level indicator will move from center position.
Rotate the 'Current' knob of regulated dc power supply, increase the current value slowly untill the green water bubble
comes to center position. The speed of the motor will change with the change in weights.
After the bubble comes to the center position and the speed of the motor gets changed, enter 1 in the 'Observation Table Number' box
(there will be observations for three successive control phase voltages in three different tables, for first one the number entered will be 1. It means
the first table will be filled). Click on 'Show Table' button to take observation data.
Change the weight again (choose the next weight after 20 as said in step 5) and follow steps 5-7.
If in any case, incorrect observation is taken mistakenly (ex: after changing the weight if observation is taken too early before the motor speed changes,
then there will be same data in two consecutive rows in a table. That will result in wrong plot), then click on 'Delete Row' button to delete that particular observation table row and take the reading again.
After changing the weights upto 200 g with control phase voltage 220 V, bring the current knob to its minimum value and
change the control phase voltage to 200 V and repeat the steps 5-7.
In this case enter 2 in the 'Observation Table Number' box (it means the second table will be filled).
Follow again steps 5-7 for the control phase voltage 180 V and in this case enter 3 in the 'Observation Table Number' box
to fill the third table .
After taking observations for three different control phase voltages under three individual table, click on 'Plot' button to observe the
Torque Vs. Speed plot.
Calculate and enter the values of K and f0 from the plot (formula for the calculation is explained in 'Theory').
Click on 'Transfer Function' in the pink box at the bottom of the page to see the transfer function of motor.
Now bring back all the knobs and variacs to minimum value and switch off the dc regulated supply.
