(a). Determine the load angle, armature current in per unit and the power factor of the alternator. (b). The alternator is now made to operate at another value of excitation emf which results in the same values of power output and armature current. Under these conditions, find the excitation voltage, load angle and the power factor. (c) If the excitation in (a) and that obtained in (b), which is more likely to be used in practical situations and and why?
