All concepts →The induced emf in a 3.3 kV, 4 pole, 3-phase star connected synchronous motor is considered to be equal and in phase with the terminal voltage under no load condition. On applicati...
Two parallel connected, three-phase, 50Hz, 11 kV, star-connected synchronous machines A and B, are operating as synchronous condensers. They together supply 50 MVAR to a 11 kV grid...
A $$25$$ $$kVA,$$ $$400$$ $$V,$$ $$\Delta $$ - connected, $$3$$-phase, cylindrical rotor synchronous generator requires a field current of $$5$$ $$A$$ to maintain the rated armatur...
A $$100$$ $$kVA$$, $$415V,$$ star connected synchronous machine generates rated open circuit voltage $$415V$$ at a field current of $$15A.$$ The short circuit armature current at a...
Two $$3$$-phase, $$Y$$-connected alternators are to be paralleled to a set of common bus bars. The armature has a per phase synchronous reactance of $$1.7\Omega $$ and negligible a...
Higher synchronous reactance is preferred in the present day alternators, because one can have
A $$5MVA$$, $$11kV$$, $$3$$-phase star connected alternator is synchronized to the bus bars and is operating with an induced $$EMF$$ of $$125\% $$ of the rated voltage. If the load...
A single-phase alternator has a synchronous reactance of $$2$$ $$ohms$$ and negligible resistance. If it supplies $$10$$ $$A$$ to a purely capacitive load at $$200V,$$ then generat...
