A three-phase alternator, 2500KVA, and 2400 volts operate at rated kilovolt-Ampere at a power factor of 80%. At 70ºC the dc armature resistance between terminals is 0.0852. The current taken by the field winding is 70 Amperes at 130 volts from the exciter equipment. Friction and windage loss is 20KW, Iron loss is 40KW, and the stray power losses are 3KW. Assume that the effective armature winding resistance is 1.2
