A long-shunt compound-wound generator gives 240V. at full load output of 100 A. The resistances of various windings of the machine are: armature (including brush contact) of 0.1Ω, series field of 0.02Ω, shunt field of 100Ω. The iron loss at full load is 1000 W.; total windage and friction losses of 500 W. Calculate the full load efficiency of the machine.
