The speed of a 10Hp separately excited D.C motor is controlled by a single phase full converter. The rated armature current is 40A. R_a=0.3 Ω. The A.C supply voltage is 260V. The motor voltage is constant is 0.182 V/rpm. While in motoring action with back emf of 192 V , the polarity of it is reversed for regeneration action calculate:
1. Firing angle to keep the motor current at its rated value.
2. The power fed back to the supply.
