Question

A 3-phase, 10 KVA, 400V, 4-pole, 50 Hz, Delta connected synchronous machine has negligible stator winding resistance and Xs = 6Ω/phase at rated voltage. The machine is operated as a generator in parallel with a 3-phase 400V, 50 Hz supply.

i) Determine the excitation voltage (Et) and the power angle (s) when the machine is delivering rated KVA at 0.85 p.f. lagging. Draw the appropriate phasor diagram for this condition. 

 

ii) The maximum torque developed by the prime-mover.

 

iii) If the field current is now decreased by 15% (without changing the prime-mover power), find the stator current and p.f.
