A power station comprises two synchronous generators with 200 MW and 400 MW putput power capacity. The two generators operate in parallel and are connected to the grid network. Both generators have governor droop characteristics of 3% (no-load to full-load percentage speed drop). Assume a free governor action. a) If the supply frequency, determined by the grid, is 1.005 pu., calculate the total power supplied by the power station. b) The 400 MW machine is more efficient than the 200 MW machine. For the same total power as determined in part (a), calculate the percentage adjustment in the no-load speed to be made by the speeder motor on the two machines if the 400 MW machine is to operate at its full capacity while the 200 MW machine supplies the difference. Assume that the frequency of the grid supply to remain as in part (a).

Energy Question-1) Three identical synchronous generators were connected in parallel and the idle frequency values of each generator were set to 54 Hz. The frequency - power characteristic slopes of the first and second generators are 5.3 MW/Hz and the slope of the third generator is 3.9 MW/Hz. When these three identical synchronous generators feed a load together, the system frequency becomes f=51.7 Hz. According to this;a-) Calculate the active power value that the first generator will provide to the load.b-) Find the active power that the second generator will provide to the load.c-) Find the active power that the third generator will provide to the load.d-) Calculate the power of the load.(All values in options a, b, c, and d in this Question will be entered as two digits after the comma.)

Two Generators rated 200 MW and 400 MW are operating in parallel. The droop characteristics of their governor are 4 % and 5% respectively fro no load to full load. The speed changers are so set the governor operate at 50 Hz sharing the full load of 600 MW, in the ratio of their ratings. If the load reduces to 400 MW, how will it be shared among the generators and what will the system frequency be? Assume free governor system. The speed changers of the governors are reset so that the load of 400 MW is shared among the generators at 50 Hz in the ratio of their ratings. What are the no-load frequencies of the generators ?
