reactance. If the field current is held constant, how would the full-load torque angle
be affected by the following changes in operating condition?
a. Frequency reduced 10 percent, load torque and applied voltage constant.
b. Frequency reduced 10 percent, load power and applied voltage constant.
c. Both frequency and applied voltage reduced 10 percent, load torque constant.

5.2 The armature phase windings of a two-phase synchronous machine are displaced by
90 electrical degrees in space.
a. What is the mutual inductance between these two windings?
b. Repeat the derivation leading to Eq.5.17 and show that the synchronous
inductance is simply equal to the armature phase inductance; that is,
1 0 a aa s
L L L + = ,where
0 aa
L is the component of the armature phase inductance
due to space-fundamental air-gap flux and
1 a
L is the armature leakage inductance.
ANS:
(a)
The windings are orthogonal and hence the mutual inductance is zero.
(b)
Since the two windings are orthogonal, the phases are uncoupled and hence the flux
linkage under balanced two-phase operation is unchanged by currents in the other phase.
Thus, the equivalent inductance is simply equal to the phase self-inductance.

5.12 Consider the motor of Problem 5.10.
a. Compute the filed current required when the motor is operating at rated
voltage, 4200kW input power factor leading. Account for saturation inder load

If the machine speed remains constant and the field current is not reduced, the
terminal voltage will increase to the value corresponding to 306 A of field
current on the open-circuit saturation characteristic. Interpolating the given
data shows that this corresponds to a value of around 4850 V line-to-line.
5-14 Loss data for the motor of Problem 5.10 are as
followsH
Open-circuit core loss at 4160V = 37kW
friction and windage loss = 46kW
field-winding resistance at 75I=0.279"
Compute the output power and efficiency when the motor is operating at rated
input power, unity power factor, and rated voltage. Assume the field-winding to be
operating At a temperature of125I
Ans:
At rated power, unity power factor, the armature current will be Ia =5000 kW/(#3
4160 V) = 694 A. The power dissipated in the armature winding will then equal
Parm = 3$ 6942 $ 0.011 = 15.9 kW.The field current can be found from
|Eaf | = |Va % ZsIa| = |4160#3 % ZsIa| = 2394 V, line-to-neutral
If = AFNL_2394/4160/3) = 238 A
At 125!C, the field-winding resistance will be
Rf = 0.279(234.5 + 125/234.5+ 75)= 0.324 &
and hence the field-winding power dissipation will be Pfield = I2f Rf = 18.35
kW.The total loss will then be
Ptot = Pcore + Parm + Pfriction/windage + Pfield = 120 kW
Hence the output power will equal 4882.75 kW and the efficiency will equal
4882.75/5000
= 0.976 = 97.6%.
5-16 What is the maximum per-unit reactive power that can be supplied by a
synchronous machine operating at its rated terminal voltage whose synchronous
reactance is 1.6 per unit and whose maximum field current is limited to 2.4 times
that required to achieve rated terminal voltage under open circuit conditions?
Ans:
For Va = 1.0 per unit, Eaf,max = 2.4 per unit
and Xs = 1.6 per unit
Qmax = (Eaf,max % Va)/ Xs= 0.875 per unit
5.19 A synchronous machine with a reactance of 1.28 per unit is operating as a
generator at a real power loading of 0.6 per unit connected to a system with a series
reactance of 0.07 per unit. An increase in its filed current is observed to cause a
decrease in armature current.
a. Before the increase, was the generator supplying or absorbing reactive power
from the power system?
b. As a result of this increase in excitation, did the generator terminal voltage
increase or decrease?
c. Repeat parts (a) and (b) if the synchronous machine is operating as a motor.
SOL:
part (a) : It was underexcited, absorbing reactive power.
part (b) : It increased.
part (c) : The answers are the same.
5.22 A four-pole, 60-Hz, 24-kV, 650-MVA synchronous generator with a synchronous
reactance of 1.82 per unit is operating on a power system which can be represented
by a 24-kV infinite bus in series with a reactive impedance of j0.21". The
generator is equipped with a voltage regulator that adjusts the field excitation such
that the generator terminal voltage remains at 24kV independent of the generator
loading.

(i) Draw a phasor diagram for this operating condition.
(ii) Find the magnitude (in kA) and phase angle (with respect to the generator

r/min~when operating at rated speed and supplying a resistive load<its terminal

A. Calculate the generator phase current under this operating condition
B. Assuming the generator armature resistance to be negligible<calculate the

C. Calculate the generator terminal voltage which will result if the motor
generator load is increased to 5kW(again purely resistive) while the speed is
