Terminal voltage (V) =230 volts

Generated voltage (Eg) = V + (Ia × Ra)

Armature current = Ia = load current + Ish

Field current = Ish

Armature resistance = Ra = 0.1 ohms.

Field resistance = Rsh = 50 ohms.

\({I_{sh}} = \frac{{\rm{V}}}{{{{\rm{R}}_{{\rm{sh}}}}}}\)

\({I_{sh}} = \frac{{230}}{{50}}\;\)

Ish = 4.6 Amps

Ia =load current + Ish

Ia = 450 + 4.6 = 454.6 Amps.

Eg = V + (Ia × Ra)

Eg = 230 + 454.6 × 0.1

Eg = 275.46 Volts.
