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]
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]
CO1: After completion of the course, the students will be able to explain the concept,
principle and performance of salient and non salient type synchronous generator.
