Questions:

1. A 3 phase star connected, 1000 kVA, 11000 V alternator has rated current if 52.5 A.
the ac resistance of the winding per phase is 0.45Ω. The test results are given below:
OC test: field current – 12.5 A, voltage between lines = 422 V.
SC test: field current – 12.5 A, line current = 52.5 A
Determine the full load voltage regulation of the alternator (i) 0.8 p.f. lagging (ii) 0.8
p.f. leading. [CO1,L3]

2. A 3 phase star-connected salient pole synchronous generator is driven at a speed near


synchronous with the field circuit open and the stator is supplied from a balanced
3-phase supply. Voltmeter connected across the line gave minimum and maximum
readings of 2800 volts and 2820 volts. The line current fluctuated between 360 A and
275 A. Calculate the Xd and Xq per phase. Neglect armature resistance. [CO1,L3]

3. A 50 Hz, 3 phase, 480 V , delta connected salient pole synchronous generator has
Xd =0.1ῼ and Xd =0.075ῼ. The generator is supplying 1200 A at 0.8 p.f. lagging.
Find the excitation EMF. Neglect armature resistance. [CO1,L1]

4. A 3 phase, 2000 kVA, 2.3 kV,star connected synchronous generator has direct axis
synchronous reactance of 2Ω/ phase and a quadrature axis synchronous reactance of
1.2Ω/ phase. It is suppling full load at 0.8 p.f lagging. Calculate (i) no load voltage
and (ii) percentage regulation. The resistance is negligible. [CO1,L3]

5. A 30 MVA, 15 kV, 60 Hz AC generator has a synchronous reactance of 1.2 pu and a


resistance of 0.02 pu. Calculate.
(i) the base voltage, base power and base impedance of the generator,
(ii) the actual values of the synchronous reactance,
(iii) the actual winding resistance, per phase
(iv) the total full-load copper losses.
[CO1,L3]

principle and performance of salient and non salient type synchronous generator.
