A Y-Y connected 105 Hp, 3-phase 60 Hz, 4-pole, 270 V squirrel cage induction motor has a rotor speed of 1,600 rpm and a rotor resistance per phase of 0.15 ohm and a blocked rotor reactance per phase of 0.6 ohm. The stator copper and core losses amount to 8% of the total rated output of the motor. a. Determine the over-all efficiency of the machine. b. Calculate the speed at which the maximum torque will be developed by the motor.
